Played around with the lighting - had originally put a brolly behind me to light up the room to really show the perspective from the convex mirror, but it ran out of batteries - a moment of serendipity - because I prefer this single shot with what was the fill light. I refilled the batteries and shot again but I definitely prefer this. So, not what I intended but fun nonetheless I think. Maybe I'll try another fisheye meets convex mirror later this month.

PP: convert from RAW, levels, burnt in edges of mirror and some of the flash flare in the mirror, then usual..border, resize, nn, usm, jpg.

I think that the single light source really adds some depth to this shot with the shadows created.

This is great, I really enjoy it this way, I could only image with more light it would take away from some of the mystery and magic of the image. Well done I really enjoy it.

THIS is one of the most interesting shots you have taken yet. I am lovin the "mirror" you and the way we can only see all of him, not of you :) *I hope that makes sense*
