petesie07-Nov-2006 14:43
I wish I had been there....."Sheila on a ladder" would have been my PaD! This is fantastic, Sheila. I thought so even before I saw the reflections. (Be careful)
AL07-Nov-2006 14:30
Incredible luminous-like color and double reflection. And "eye"-popping too :-) Great catch and please be careful!

Guest 07-Nov-2006 09:09
gosh the things we go through to get the pic!
firstly....gorgeous...i didn't see the 'three' of them until i saw your title.
secondly....you must have some steady hands to shoot this at 1/30s and being on the ladder!
