Description Afterthoughts 11/10/06: Another that, in retrospect, I'm just not too fond of. I had intended on this being a "Portrait:Whoever" piece, but an accidentally placed ring had me looking at the picture in a new light. So I scrapped almost the entirety of my original image and started on this. It was created in four steps:
1) The foreground image was finished then duplicated to get the "reflections"
2) The duplicates were scaled and layered to fit within the ring of the image before it
3) Blur and Shadows were added to the reflections
4) A blurred strip of white was added to each of the rings to simulate glass

If you look closely you will see where I cheated by using the exact same background cardboard that I used in Ordinary Days

Very well done! I love the way it seems as if you're looking into a mirror at first, and the sense of decay is great!
