Description This photo is one of the first shots I made on saterday. It was not a submission for the photo marathon, but It's one from the same series. Now that I see these shots on a large screen I think this one is better. The actual submission didn't show the lower part of the fence, which made for a better composition, but the image in the mirror was a bit less sharp and didn't show the clocks completely. This was shot with a flexible spot focus in the corner, and the mirror belonged to a motor bike that was parked in the street. The tower in the background is the Ghent belfry. We were working on the theme "look in/look out" at that moment and thought this was a suitable concept. You look INTO the mirror, the tower is looking OUT over the city, and rear view mirrors are also made for looking out. My team mate for the marathon was my great friend *Chentoolive .

Comments are very welcome !!!

'Tis one of those photographs that catches your eye straight away and has a sense of beauty about it that for a motorbike mirror seems misplaced, but nevertheless is still there. Awesome.

THANKS SO MUCH Caithlin !!!
I love the way in which you describe that photo
That's exaclty what I try to do, capture beauty that no one else sees !!!
And here we can quote Dorothea Lange again: "The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera."
