 This is me on the other side of a loupe (I think that's how you spell it...)

I took this with my camera in one hand. I then cropped in quite a bit. It probably would have worked better if I would have used my tripod and zoomed in, but what can you do. It's a learning experience. It probably would have been sharper that way.

What's really cool about this is it makes the viewer think they are the one who's trapped and being stared at. It flips the perspective nicely.

Cool, my eyes really get drawn into the glass and your face. I then get confused because of the background, only to be drawn back to you face in the glass again.
Neat. Good idea.

What a great idea! I like the bit of higher contrast you got in the glass. Nice!

very disorienting I agree, and well done on the focus without looking.

Very cool... Love the abstract nature of this, and the feeling of disorientation is delivers. Very cool.

No jaggies here.

Cool take on the SP today. I like. For sure a tripod and some zoom would have helped, but what can you do? You have to learn something from all this.
