Description
Two years ago I visited Washington, D.C. for the first time. We went to the Vietnam memorial. Someone had left a single white rose, which I took a picture of. It was... poignant. I still get goosebumps thinking about it.Related content

Absolutely breath taking, with so much meaning and story behind it. An absolutely amazing piece of work. Good Job.

Really bright. Really, Really bright.
I like it- especially the ribbons and reflections.

Eh, sorry about the brightness. My computer screen can be wonky with brightness and colors. Apologies for any blindness caused by the photo!
I liked it too.

Oh? I thought it was simply the sunlight. In the Vietnam Memorial, it reflects off of...basically everything.

Oh, well, that might be it too. One of the pictures I was going to upload was pretty much a mirror of myself and my family in the wall.

A friend of mine took a picture of her holding a mirror in the mirror. And a spoon. With flash- in the dark. The reflections were amazing.

I may just have to try that some time. Another fun mirror trick is to get a door with a mirror on one side, and take a picture that makes you look like you're levitating. I did one of those for a project in physics last semester.

by taking it upside-down???

Kinda. By having one side of one's body on the other side of the door, and the other limbs held up. I'll have to take another picture of the sort.

wouldn't that just cut you in half? (The picture, that is _._ )

Not with the mirror. It would give the illusion of the reflection being your other half.

but then your feet are still on the ground...?

Only one foot - the one behind the door.

...And which limb's taking the photo?

Oooh - someone else takes the photo.

Haha! Why didn't you say so XD
Contortionists...
That'll be a fun experiment one day. I might even be able to do it by the end of high-school

Because I'm a goofy little blonde who forgets that people can't read her mind. XD
It's fun to play with mirrors. Light experiments were fun, though I couldn't do half the calculations to save my life.
