So I was out and about this week and fouund a few that might work. What do you think?

#1 Mirror

#2 Exposed

#3 Spotlit

#4 Flasher

Love the Mirror Shot! And I can see you have flashers similar to me around here!

I like #4 Flasher most

#3 really speaks to me....I like the way the sunlight reveals the spider web (that you may not have seen from a different angle or in different light)....very nice.

Number three seems to be more towards the theme and I like it the most. I struggled to see how they fit the theme until I read some of the comments. Good luck.

Thanks, Tom! I wanted to get closer to the flasher, but he took off before I could get there.

Thanks, Tatiana! The flasher is my favorite, but I wasn't sure that the bird was prominent enough or that people would see it as being on theme.

Thanks, amiable! That is exactly what I thought. What I am not sure of is if it is strong eough as a photo.

In #2, the water droplets do the same thing - reveal the web that would have gone unnoticed.

For me, the mirror surface of the water disguises the bottom of the lake in #1. There may not be enough detail of the bottom for people to get that.

I thought about calling #4 "Greet the Sun", but Flasher amuses me. I thought the fog might contribute to the disguise/reveal theme, but it may just confuse the issue.

It's the way the bird appears that I like

I was thinking of a foggy shot too, but I don't have a place with a lake (and possible) fog near by...

While i love #4--the shot is great!
But I don't know if this is disguise or reveal?

Thanks, Liz! I can understand the confusion. I think it is a bit ambiguous.

I am working on another idea and hope to have something else posted by mid week.
