Reflections: poetry, photography and art

I had been watching the puddle of water in the driveway through the window as I worked inside.  I purposely see the present as holding future possibility. What follows is an example of that proposition placed into action with a camera and consciousness at my disposal.

I decided to see if I could  improve upon the image and went outside.  The perspective was different. 

 

                                                                                Reflections fascinate me to no end. 

                                                                                 They conceal many possibilities..

 

 

 

Over the next few hours a bird flew overhead...

 

 

                                                                                         here's proof.

Other things happened over the next few hours including the evaporation of the puddle all the way to dry blacktop.. 

I used the third photograph to make the following picture.  I am pleasantly baffled at how something appears from something else in the process of working on the original photographs. 

To the image I added flames. 

It appears as if  a boot with flames of fire is one of the possibilities in a puddle of water.

 

                                                                                             

                                                                                                      The second shoe drops

 ... so to speak.

This image continued to morph all on its own . 
I found it lurking in the pixels. .


The image below of a Carbon Egg also appeared while working on the photograph of a  reflection of the sky in a puddle in the driveway.

Sometimes this process of breaking open photographs to find other content is like augury
