Weekend Reflections - Looking in the Mirror


Recently while in the big smoke, I stayed in a super apartment
with my nephew and niece-in-love. As I looked over the balcony
just after the sun had risen and was illuminating our side of the
street, I was surprised to see our replica in the windows of the
uninspiring building across the street.
A lone smoker was enjoying a cigarette in the cold morning air -
smoking in public closed spaces is banned in Australia.


I tried to get our whole house in but did not have a sufficiently
wide angled lens


and opted for a quality vignette instead.

  1. header photo: my mum had 2 kettles like yours. One is blacken from boiling water ovrt a charcoal fire, the other is in its original stage. We always drank boiled water. So after the water is boiled in the blacken kettle, it is transfer to the clean one.

  10. These are really interesting. Almost looks like paintings on a wall instead of reflections.

  11. Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the most wondrous photographer of them all? No, don't tell me. I know who it is already.
