    Peter,
    A kind of 'reflection' that photographers often forget is where light reflects upwards onto the underside of the subject; such as onto the bottom of an aircraft fuselage. As a painter, such light reflection is important in creating a realistic two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional aircraft. These reflections give the image its round appearance. If you're attempting studio photography, it's worth using lights and/or reflectors to introduce this kind of reflective lighting effect. And, while you're on a photo walk, it's worth your keeping your eyes open to capture the way light may be reflected from beneath your subject. Such ground reflections add interest and "dimensionality" to two-dimensional photographs of three-dimensional photographs.

    Nice video Peter: It feels that since you are no more Olympus affiliate, you are focussing more on what to do with whatever you have at hand rather then being somehow compelled to focus on what you are using. I think your channel has improved, slightly, slowly but it's noticeable.

    A really good video Peter. It inspires me to look at reflections in a different way. The pictures are great. But how do you control your video camera? An apparently invisible extension to your arm when walking then shifting and recomposing the video when you were crouched on the ground.

      Peter suggested that it's helpful to have a flip-screen to see what you camera is seeing when taking those low angle shots on wet ground. However, if you don't have a flip-screen and don't want to get your knees wet while kneeling in puddles, DIY shops sell very inexpensive lightweight foam rubber kneeling pads that will keep your knees dry and stop you bruising yourself on gravel or other rough surfaces.

      That is true. I could do that. But in theses videos the settings are not that important. The idea and learning to see is more important.

    About this assignment, I am eager to participate... Like I told you in your last video I bought an em10 mk iii for my wife, but I have been the one experimenting with it. I will try and produce a photo using the new camera, if I don't like any I will send and older one I have taken before. The weather here in Lisbon, Portugal hasn't been the best for reflections... But they predict rain tonight so I hope I can grab a good image tomorrow.
    All the best to you and your family.

    Something totally different: You reviewed a Fuji camera a few days ago. Now that OMDS might do some collaboration with Samsung, it would have been interesting if you could review the 6.5-year-old Samsung NX1 with the 16-50mm f/2.0-2.8 zoom. How good was that camera compared to other cameras of that time? How good is the Samsung image sensor? Could a collaboration between OMDS and Samsung result in an improved M4/3 image sensor? Can OMDS learn something from the Samsung NX menu system?
