window into another world

Posted by e. (New York, NY, United States) on 2 December 2007 in Abstract & Conceptual and Portfolio.

Don't you ever wonder what's on the other side?

Credit for the photo idea goes to Mike, because he pointed out this ridiculously reflective window and commented on how it would make a neat photo.

He was right. Nice shot. I have always thought that windows terrific subjects.

Wow, very cool shot.

Also, I didn't get to your pic from yesterday in time, we had the same subject you said. I went and looked up the plant, and I'm pretty sure it's called a Pyracantha. Yours was a lovely shot too!

What an amazing reflection. I wonder who lives on the other side - it would be strange if they appeared in the reflection to give you a wave.....
