Hey, they said 'no mirror reflection' LOL. I like the way you circumvented that limitation by not using this mirror's mirror, Peter ;o). I also like the tall/short distortion in this double portrait. A pity the portrait is a bit too dark though... TFS.

Hey you got two self portraits in there! :) Nicely done. I would maybe lighting yourself up a tiny bit but it still looks cool. Great job.

BTW, this works in Sylvie's theme but not really in mine. Mine is similar but no *self* portraits allowed. :) Just a slight variation on her theme.
I will take yours out of mine. Sorry! Out of points today too! Tomorrow. JP

Very nicely done and I really the two reflections which presents a different & distorted version of yourself - like when you go to the old-fashion fairground with distorting mirror. The red background of the car makes the reflection stands out even more. Well done!

this is such a cool shot Peter! it's funny that you did it not knowing about the themes as it really fits perfectly with them! i really like the bold graphic quality of the composition and well.. polished chrome on a red background always looks really cool and visually appealling :-)

great shot and hope all is well with you!

take care,
Ayda

Nice contribution to the theme. I think the right hand reflection is nearer haha. TFS Paul.

Cleverly done peter, two in one ! Creative and artistic,. The colours are vibrant, and your framing matches nicely. Nicely done, TFS, Sam.
PS: On a side note, my mother's family is from Kelso (& Yetholm), so I'm sure I have some long lost relatives around there, which I hope to meet up with some day.

Hello Peter,

Really nice catch! I like that you are a bit dark, it emphasizes your profile in the sky part of the reflexion.

Deux Peter pour le prix d’un … Quelle chance !!!
La photographie ressemble à ces publicités pour maigrir où l’on peut voir le même personnage avant et après son régime miracle …
Bien vu !!!

Red and Silver and Peter! Actually there are two of you. This is a great shot, Peter. I love the two colors. Makes for an eyecatching imagine. I am behind the times so gotta find out what this "reflection image" is.....I am so behind in what is going on and I miss is so much....
Good, crisp shot, too. As the kids used to say, "it's reall Kool"......:O)

Nice one Peter. Great contrasts, and the compo using the mirror and reflections is appealing.

Hello Peter,

Nice to meet you. It's really interesting double-portrait in premeditiated form. Beautiul colour's contrast and simplicity makes your photo very good picture.
Bravo.

keep steady

Hi Peter !
I had missed your beautiful and original contribution to the challenge !
I love it, especially the double reflection of you in two different angles, one more distorted than the other one.
Great idea and work !
And nice anticipation ... :)

I like the symplicity of this shot, 2 main colours, then the added bonus of the reflection, normally this would have detracted from the shot, but for some reason it adds to this one, perhaps because it emphasises the different angles on the wing mirror, who knows, but it a great shot. Nice
