Very little processing. Crop, B&W, Levels, Resize, Border, Sharpen. That's it.

Two mirrors, one quite old, at an acute angle and the face in the opening. The old one gave the degradation.

The tricks the memory can play on us! Wonderful nostalgia but, wait, there is also a feeling of silent falling, slowly and irreversible in the viscosity of time.

This is quite a favourite for me. First, it gave me sense of serenity yet loneliness. Looking further, it revealed a longing for identity and closure in a virtual sea of reflective uniformity. Yet there are significant subtle differences in those reflections. Nuances draw the viewer and subject into its’ illusionary world with perhaps a false promise of discovery. There is a sense of falling into a nothing, a void while the search for identity remains as elusive as the implied unending multiple reflection. Facing this existential void may require extraordinary measures, leaps of faith with no promise of reward.

I've felt like this. Many times. Haunting.

I like the image... thought provoking, great contrasts of tones ... I wish I understood how you intended the title.
Maybe Slip Slidin' Away ... like the song:)

one thumb = top ten & hang on my wall anytime.
Beautiful in every way. It's a simple conception but so perfectly executed; in the mind, in the camera and maybe later a bit too (though it feels more like the product of a camera with an attractive stutter than it does any kind of post production). I especially admire the decreasing resolution ... the more we see of the subject the less information about her we really get. It's way more sophisticated than it looks at first glance and my own top ten tribute may be selling it short after all. Thank you.
