Module 10's homework dealt with photographing reflections. Water and glass are the two mediums that first come to mind. I thought about finding a reflecting pool downtown, but it's the middle of winter. Most of the fountains don't have water in them right now. I could of found a pond, but I didn't feel like hauling all my children to a pond and then trying to keep them away from the water, in freezing temperatures, while I'm trying to take pictures. It's a little too complicated right now, so I turned to glass. In fact, I skipped the traveling all together and used my front door. It's a much more convenient subject for practicing.
At first I just played a little bit with Aperture: low for only focusing on the reflection itself and then high, so that almost the door itself would also be in focus. The reflection loses some of its sharpness when you try to keep the door focused, but I like looking at the difference.
Here's the whole door view:
