It was a great way to spend some time outdoors on a perfect afternoon.

Smart phone and tablet make interesting reflecting surfaces when they are turned off. For example:

I have a nice ~ 60cm x 60cm / 2ft x 2ft piece of black plexiglas that is a wonderful base for reflective images. Care is required because the material scratches, but one can set up reasonably large articles to be photographed.
I don't use it all that often though.
