ILLUSION?

For this challenge, I chose to take a photograph of me taking a picture with an analogue camera. The reflection is no illusion either, I namely positioned my tripod exactly on the spot where you would see that reflection. In other words, the mirror’s reflection you see in these pictures is real! Apart from the reflection element, I also tried to show the contrast between the object (the mirror in this case) and its environment (nature). Their only relation to each and other is the reflection in the mirror - which in itself tells a story too: me taking a picture. And thus, this is my story element. Finally, these images were taken in Kortrijk, in the Groeningepark.
