This picture was taken at the Australian National Library, Canberra. It was fairly early in the morning and the cafe was overflowing with people there for an early snack. The morning clean sun was shining through the stain-glass windows where were reflecting on the glass walls around the cafe. The tricky thing about taking this picture was to make sure that I could capture all the reflections from the glass walls while not have a reflexion of the flash, and still capturing enough light to make the picture a clear and colourful one. I used the 18-55mm lens, which luckily had IS built into it. This is only my second submission, so any comments (good or bad), suggestions and tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

a good reflection idea! the idea gets swallowed up by the people in the foreground, though, imo. i wonder how could this picture be shot or cropped to really emphasize those lights?

reflections don't stand out as much as the people.

I do like the colorful reflections. I think if you were able to rotate this about 0.3 degrees counter-clockwise (or more to straightern out the columns) it would be even more effective.
