This weeks photo shows Hollywood Beach as seen reflected off the beach house.  I've posted this shot on my flickr account to provide context.  This is a good example of a photo that came about, not from some design or plan, but just walking around with a camera and being playful with the world around me.  In this case, I had walked up to this beach house thinking it would make for an interesting macro or abstract, only to realize that the most interesting photo was in how it reflected the lakefront that surrounded it.

This is featured today on both Gapers Block on flickr's "Last 7 Days" explore page.  I had a feeling people would like this one, still, it's always a bit surprising when the explore thing happens.

Here's another shot:
