We have an elephant mirror in our bedroom that we brought back from Thailand. I thought about doing a self portrait in it, and then I noticed the selective focus and decided to make a diptych out of it. I'm not in love with the light, and I probably could have shown a little more finesse in putting the two images together in Photoshop, but I kind of enjoy the concept. Maybe I'll try this again later with a more interesting photographic subject.

This is the kind of stuff I'm talking about in my Phun Phriday! theme. It's trying new and different things and just having Phun! You should make a comment and link to this post as your submission for Phun Phriday!. Great job.
ReplyDeleteJessica, this is great...(and what a cool mirror). For some reason I am humming the song "man in the mirror" now LOL Fun fun idea!
ReplyDeleteDon't forget to link this to Mr Linky over on the main blog!
Ah Jessica, I think I see flowers on that elephant. LOL. Great concept. I'd like to see you expand it to include another photo with a focus somewhere right in the middle.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter would flip for this mirror 'phants are her favorite.
Cute elephant and great self portrait. Very neat idea.
ReplyDeleteFun indeed and a clever self portrait.
ReplyDeleteVery clever - and your focus is dead on in both images. Fun!
ReplyDeleteClever you! Nice to see you!
ReplyDeleteAnother original. Great take on the assignment.
ReplyDeleteCould swear I replied to this post once already. Must have been at the time that wordpress was having those huge problems. Anyway, this is a unique treatment of showing off your treasures and getting a shot of yourself at the same time. While I love your cute elephants, I am disappointed we did not get a few words about yourself and who you are.
ReplyDeleteDon't know why the "LCRC" should have been attached to the previous post. This is Iona. The LCRC is short for Lawrence County Republican Committee - I manage the website, but it wasn't even open so it should not have been attached. I did not notice the ID was on the page below when I went to post the comment. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for a selfportrait and whata lovely mirror!
