For this composition I decided to create a booklet. The assignment was to create a visual essay about reflections. On the cover page I created a logo and wanted to define what a reflection is. Then on the inside, when the image is folded in half, both pages would be reflecting each other.

In Photoshop, I edited each photo as a double exposure image. The idea behind this was a reflection within a reflection.

The first puddle and the fourth photo are both reflections of buildings. Those buildings also had reflections of the building on the opposite street.

The top photo on the right was an image I captured while cooking water in a pot. I was working on a project to naturally dye fabric and I needed to create a mordant to clean the fabric. The solution that created completely distorted any objects that reflected from it because the solid elements placed in the water would not dissolve properly

The bottom left photo was my key lanyard reflecting off of rubber cement can. The reflection was interesting because it faded out the object the mirror was reflecting.
