Re: Contest 226: Mirror image
I was going to do similar Wayne!! But had no one to get the photo of me lol


Jota, maybe the mirrors confused me, but I thought I saw the photographer on the reflection in the right, I guess I didn't


Personally I think my position is wrong on mine, I kinda rushed it just to have a contribution as I dont have time this week.

Thanks Jota. I can't help thinking I'm risking Steve's wrath though!

Lexus, great minds think alike! I have to confess I only resorted to this after hours of searching for a suitable back on google!

I was getting confused too. The 90 degree mirror (mirror on mirror .... ) covering half the place was conufusing me...... (I thought "mister tie" should be in there, but decided not(?). I did mess around with this for a .... (long ..... time ) ..... meanwhile came to this conclusion, though not perfect I admit , life goes on Trevor,

PS I'm not yet sure how to resolve the second mirror problem ???? (yet ? ) ..... Maybe he can put it in his book / blog??
I hope Mr Steve never gives us that problem , especizlly associated with Jota120 ! ;-)

Thanks, it was the best head I could find. the shirt gave me a lot of trouble, had to go through a lot of my photos, looking for people in the background.

I'm appalled to say I'm 26. Actually, to grasp the full horror of it all, I'm only a few months off 27. I'm going to cry now, thanks a bunch Lexus.


The ever encouraging Nick thought I should attempt this week's challenge. I'm sure this isn't exactly what Steve is looking for, but I thought I'd have a go anyway.

I'm age agnostic (...... probably forgot ) !!!!. Don't see the difference. I'm still learning to spell ..... and more ....

Nice one Mad Lep! I've been waiting for yours and other's contributions.

Excuse my noise again, just delete ....., Something bugged me and now resolved?: 老子 (Lao Tze/Lao Zi) "said" "Can you polish your mysterious mirror* And leave no blemish?"

*=~ i.e the mind(?).

And finally, going sureal again, Dali's painting of him painting his wife (Gala) in front of the mirror is an inspiration, if anyone recalls!!? (don't have it physically with me at the moment )

Great concept Celia.

I've never been described as 'ever encouraging' before, but I'll take that as a complement. My simple view is that if you shy away from a challenge, then others won't be able to see what you've achieved and either learn, or offer advice. We're all here to help eachother. After all, you cannot take the knowledge with you, so you might as well share it and make others happy.

Re: Contest 226: Mirror image
Thanks everyone, glad it gave you all a smile!

Jota is this the picture you refer to? I love Dali's work, even if a lot of it is a tad over my head, lol. My favourites are 'Metamorphosis of Narcissus' and 'The Ship'. Creeps me out. But then all his stuff creeps me out.

Yes Mad Lep, that's one of them. Thank you so much. The other one includes his paint on the canvers, closer image looking over shoulders! It proves, there is no artist >> artist ...... anywhere . I know it does'nt help my case with Lexus, but I'm happy anyway and already apprecieted his feedback

I agree its "freeky", but I sort of grew up in those times and cannot forget, plus Spain interior is great, cycle, eat, chat, work ... language, muy sympatico (apart from got robbed once !!!). Just think of tapas.

BTW, I'm not so far away here in Cork, so keep your green shamrock flying high with support from me!!, Trevor
