Blue Looking Down

By Mark Gregory Peters

This is the third entry of four abstract nature series.  Blue.  My obsession with reflected objects continues.  While fixating on a spot on a river bank I became interested in the world above me being reflected in what was below me. People passing by, the sky, the sun. It reminds me of images shot by astronauts looking down at islands adrift in the ocean. Way up high looking down and observing everything down below you, or in this case, way down low looking down and observing everything high above you. I know it sounds like a worn out cliche, but sometimes there are moments when I see the world that way so I think of these types comparisons with the things that I see around me. Especially if I’m walking along feeling blue, and looking down.
