I took this photo during a computer group meeting a few years ago. The glass has the establishment’s name, and they had rather good food as I recall. It was a popular restaurant, one of those places where you could get breakfast at any time.

I was looking at my glass and thought there were photographic possibilities. I had my fisheye lens, so I popped it on my phone and captured this. I only took the one shot. The processing was minor: I cropped a little to improve the composition. That was it; I didn’t even adjust the contrast or the color. If you keep your eyes open, there are photo opportunities everywhere.

I was in a meeting at work when I took off my glasses and put them down on the table. After a couple of minutes, I noticed the image in one of the lenses. I couldn’t capture it at once because we were still in the meeting, so I left my glasses on the table. When the meeting broke up, I moved the glasses a little, quickly took the photo, and went back to work.

I don’t remember there being anything special about the processing. The remember the original photo had a slightly blue tint, which I didn’t like. I simply cropped a little, converted the image to black and white, and adjusted the contrast.

Sometimes you just look up and there it is—a photo just waiting to be made. I was laying in bed one morning, looking up at my drapes. I liked how the light just grazed the top of the fabric, so I picked up my phone and recorded it. I made several exposures, but this is my favorite because of the angle.

The processing was simple. I cropped a little, converted the image to black and white, and adjusted the contrast. That was it—normal processing, nothing fancy. This is all about the quality of the light and the angle of the curtain rod. It’s about responding to what you see and knowing it’s got potential.
