Where? Spain.. the beach of Torremolinos
Victim ? My British friend Richard

In the past I have seen people taken photo's via sunglasses.. never tried that .. untill the day my friends Cristine and Richard arrived from the UK

When I noticed Richards new sunglasses I had to take a shot... Crazy.. I know... ^__^

Thanks for your stop-in Folks

John T

PS on my Bathing suit:

Lovely detail in the reflection but I have to say those shorts you are wearing scare me somewhat! :-)

A beautiful sharp reflection! What is that wide lens you are holding? Is that your 24-105? The photo is sharp and the skin is very natural.

Thank you for your comments.

I like it. Nice composition, colors and light.

Hi John, I do not know if I like best the shape and reflection on the lenses or the camera you are holding. Good composition, very sharp image with great colours.

Iris

Why crazy? It works great. I've seen some shots through the rearview mirror also that are stunning. Good looking guy on the other side of the lens!
Cheers
Otto

Zo'n expiriment heb ik ook eens gemaakt. Geeft altijd een leuk effect hoewel deze van jou in de glazen heel scherp is.
Origineel en leuk uitgevoerd.

Ja ja,

John ik had je zonder naam er onder ook wel herkent aan die grijze kuif en dat buikje!
Maar uh, vroeger waren het nog leuke meiden, nu kerels met snorren en zonnebrillen?

Look at the amount of people who have wanted to leave their mark on your photo of you on the beach at Torremolinos.

What are they seeing Johnty? The lovely white sand? The friend's moustache (well, part of it)? That handsome grey-haired gentleman with the big camera hiding his face? Or those pink and blue shorts?

I wonder!
Janice

Hi John

I wouldn't worry about the bathing suit. When you get to your age, you can do as you damned well please! A catchy shot, using reflections innovatively. Tfs!

Hi John,

Very funny this close-up, but very entertaining, I am imagining you convincing him of giving a shot and him as model looking you if it positions. I see that the sun is already leaving him ruby-red! Beautiful effect in the mirror of the sun glasses.
Congratulations

Sérgio

Hi bro! haha! funny to see you in these boxer shorts! Lol!

Also very good shot in the sun glasses. Very sharp and good colours.

Well done! sis :)

ps: many thx for your crit on "The Citadelle - for Refugee". It's very appreciated.

Mice idea John
Greating for Richard.
Have a nice day

Bonjour John,
Super autoportrait!
trés original:D
merci,

Armel.

Nice self shot.
Great that you've captured most of youself rather than just your camera/face.

By the looks of the reflection I can see it's a lovely and nice beach.
