    Good Friday Self Portrait (sort of!)

    Hi all .. the churches in my town always do an outdoor Good Friday event in the High Street. This was the first year in a long time I haven't been involved in organising it, so I photographed it instead.

    This is the reflection in a Salvation Army tuba .. the little figure in red with the camera is moi!

    I am not sure it really works .. but it is a bit of fun

    Cheers
    Mike

    As an event photo I think it works well.

    It is nicely exposed and composed. You have that neat double reflection in there too.

    That you can show folks where you are in the image is a bonus.

    Print it and sell it!
    No, I DON'T need that.

    It works Mike, I knew what it was when I looked at it. I didn't have to search for an explanation.

    How can I be lost
    If I've got nowhere to go?

    Great.

    Like Tyson said, I didn't have to read your comment at all, just by looking at the picture you know what's going on.
