In photography, scenes and subjects are composed with intent, or at a minimum, the hope is to capture a moment in time. Through the viewfinder, however, details are often not detected until you see the end result.
In a shot I took yesterday, my daughter was immediately drawn to the wild eyes of our tame rabbit–
Focused, Rachel demanded, "Zoom in on his eye!" so I did.
We saw "it" at the same time…and were delightfully surprised by the discovery.
So much of life is in the details! How often have I missed a special "something" because I was moving too fast to see it?
If this isn’t an über-cool photo for Project Looking Through, I don’t know what is!
Not familiar with PLT? It’s the brainchild of Mark’s Regular Life, succinctly and lyrically described by my friend Jeanne as "posting photographs that somehow embody the theme ‘looking
through’…a great way to encourage observation." Feel free to link your own photos at Mark’s spot so others can enjoy them :).
REVISED: CAN Y’ALL NOT SEE ME IN HIS EYE? I’M SURPRISED NO ONE HAS MENTIONED THAT…LOOK AGAIN AND TELL ME IF YOU DO! 🙂
Oh I LOVE this! Great shot! And Perfect for the PLT!
Cool pic! You had to really zoom in to get that one!!! =)
Excellent. It’s great that digital photography allows us to show this level of detail so easily.
The rabbits in our neighborhood (wild bunnies) won’t stand still for this type of photo. Very rude.
The reflection is just amazing! Unbelievable photos!!
Cool! I love the shifting of colors in his eye from reflected blue sky to brown iris.
Cute bunny. 🙂
Of course I can see you! What a great snap!
And I agree, we miss much when we don’t slow down. Photography helps us become more observant.
I don’t know about anybody else but I saw you right off the bat! Amazing shot!
I see you; I see you!
How could they miss you? The things that almost always surprise me in photography are what I find in the reflections. Great discover and perfect for PLT.
Are you getting anxious for what the next project will be? I’m toying with some ideas of starting a photo project myself. We shall see.
Awesome shot! I can really see reflection!
Who’d a thunk it!!
The first thing I saw was you in the reflection! Great picture.
That’s not you. It’s Voldemort and that creature is a grim.
Yes, I saw you straight away and it is the perfect photo for the theme!
What a great shot. I remember seeing one like this over at PW’s place. Only it was a cow’s eye. Yours is much more ladylike! : )
Yes I saw you immediately in the second shot. Great idea, I have been taking a few reflection shots today and hope I will have one that is suitable for this theme.
HOLY CRAP! that’s awesome. You know I used to get parents magazine…the one with the close up of a little baby every month, in every picture to can see the parents reflection in the babies eyes, I really like this picture.
Very, very cool. I think I need to post one of those. You have a very interesting bunny. We had one once and someone told us we could litter box train it. Not only was that totally unsuccessful, but the bunny chewed through the power cords to our TV and VCR.
THis IS über!!!
oh i totally saw you in the eye.
cooler than cool!
