Mirrors and Jewels


Here’s another image from my shoot with Punam and Dal. I was photographing Punam around this butterfly statue that was decorated with fake jewels and mirrors. As Punam checked her make-up, I captured a few images of her reflection, ending with one that pays a slight tribute to her Indian heritage.

Oh wow, I wouldn't have noticed her reflection if you hadn't pointed it out. This is very creative :)

Great shot! I picked up on her reflection right away!

Very artistic Chad! And I would call that a portrait :).

Well done! Very cool capture!!

Did the city remove the swans now that the butterflies are the in thing?

The colors in these last two images are just outstanding and wonderfully artistic compositions!

Thanks everyone!

Salty,
The Swans are still on display by the people who baught them. The Butterflies are the latest "artist commissioned" thing though.

Brian,
Ha ha! Thanks.

Micki,
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed them.

Very cool, I love it! May I be so bold as to suggest another of the same image, maybe cropped in tight to "enhance" the reflection and take out the top left part so the whole frame is butterfly wing? It's a great shot as is though also!

Wingnut,
I had actually already thought of that option, but decided to go with what you see. Great minds do think alike;)
