    Ingenious. Would love to see a nice b/w conversion.

    I find it curious that no one else has commented.

    Awesome Tuna, I'm trying to work out how you got both the model and the reflection so sharp.

    Isn't it a cool thing in nature that the colours never seem to clash...

    I have no issues with you editing my photos

    The model is being projected on the TV screen while the scene is being reflected off the other side of the glass, so the DoF required is about 1/4"

    Great composition, and a nice self portrait Tuna, reminds me a bit of your "me and my shadow" project.

    Re: while a model watches

    Though there are three layers (five by some standards...), it is all on the same plane, so the focus is consistent within the hyperfocal range of the f/stop .

    At least that is my best guess.

    edit: also see above!

    Both I suppose. I wanted someone in that plane and was waiting for someone to be walking along the opposite sidewalk but noticed the biker at the last moment and fired off a shot - luckily I managed to get him in that spot...

    Re: while a model watches

    I would like to see a wider shot as I am confused as to what she is looking out of. Am I the only one that thinks that? hmmm? Otherwise, the sharpness of the picture is outstanding and the idea creative.

    All opinions expressed by this person are purely that, opinions which means she doesn't actually know anything about photography.
