Location: Hollywood, CA
Date: Feb 29, 2012

 Model: Deborah Pearl

I've known Deb for years. She's one of the founders of the National InChoir - a seasonal singing group I belong to that goes caroling at hospitals and convalescent homes during the holidays.

After a pet portrait session I did with her, she asked if I could do some press release images. As I had not prepared for that, I was a bit stumped until I posed her next to her giant mirrors. I took several of her interacting with her "twin", but this was the reaction when I told her what I was seeing. Though questionable images for her press kit, I realized this just might work for the challenge.

Wow, what fun and all those rings add interest in an area that might otherwise lack it ! Having a reflection of course also adds to the palindromic feel! Great entry. I hope this does well.

Made me smile. Nicely done and one where the palindrome enhances the image.
