This shot was taken with the Sigma 70-200 + 2x converter. f/5.6 @ 1/750th sec iso 400. Effective focal length 240mm. Handheld.
Shot across Military Road in Neutral Bay at some mirrors on display outside of a shop. Focussed on the reflection in the mirror, hence everything else including the frame is out of focus.

Nice shot Chris, as usual! Very much from a different perspective. Good work champ!

Yep, I like this one Chris.
Isn't it amazing how all the "different perspective" photos come out now. I guess in a couple of months we'll be seeing the really good "decisive moment" photos.

Chris I like the effect of the stacked mirrors(?) to the right of your subject, the continuing reflection looks great.....are you in a position to reshoot them?
Cheers

Many years ago in the day of film...I did a whole series on reflections in shop windows. By forcing myself to look at these reflections I eventually began to see reflections within reflections...like another universe. Sometimes I would see 4 or 5 levels of reflections, a mirror in a mirror in a shop window bouncing off another level off glass etc. There is a whole universe of life that lives parrallel to our universe in the magic mirror. And the store dummies come to life at night and love and party and travel from shop to shop. It's very spooky stuff.
PS I declare that I do not take illegal drugs or other narcotics.

I will reshoot this week when the winds and rain stop - and, I agree Matt you don’t need drugs to see beyond the first plain of existence
