[Leica] PAW week 3: Orientation

[firkin at ncable.net.au (Alastair Firkin)]

g'day all,

my week 3 PAW is another silver print. Summer has been very "patchy" 
and with recent rain, I went out and spotted puddles. This first image 
is of a well known heritage building near our home. My idea was to make 
an image of the "turret" restaurant reflected in the puddle, then 
orient it as if you were looking at the original building, ie flip over 
and mirror the negative. The result:

Helen was at first quite keen, but as I printed alternatives, she ended 
up preferring this more original image, which makes it easy to see the 
puddle and you then search for the turret.

And here is the original image: I could not decide how much of the 
background to include, but I did not like the post on the second island 
on the R, so it went.

Which do you like/dislike, or how would you have shot or cropped. 
Comments would be delightful ;-)

Cheers and here's luck
