Challenge: Mirrors (Advanced Editing II)
Camera: Nikon Coolpix 4500
Location: Lake Zurich, Illinois
Date: Sep 6, 2004
Aperture: f/4.2
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/6 sec
Galleries: Emotive, Portraiture
Date Uploaded: Sep 9, 2004

 I built a large size kaleideoscope by taking 3 12x12 inch mirror tiles and duct taping them together into an equalateral triangle. I had my son stick his head inside the mirror triangle and drape a white cloth over his back and neck to remove unwanted reflections. The bright white areas of the cloth bother me somewhat, so I hope they are not too much of a distraction.

Great composition. The square format works well. The large elements in the foreground and smaller elements as it moves to the back are reminiscent of the work of MC Escher. I wonder if Black and White would enhance the "geometry" of this image.

Wow. You really thought this out well. I would like more light I think or at least lighten it in curves. But it's a very clever idea and model is quite a handsome young man. Revisited bumped to 9.

Very good idea. The strong whites are a distraction though.

This took some plotting and planning, and other than the look up the nostrils, it is interesting! It's just my personal pet peeve though, to line up a shot so we are not looking up anyone's nose! Sorry, I still give this a 9

Cool... I had thought about something like this but wasn't sure how to set the mirrors up. Good luck in the challenge!
