Occasionally, taking a risk with a pocket camera pays off in the form of an unusual picture. Playing such games in a public wash room hones one’s sense of timing to a very fine edge indeed, believe you me.
I’ve been fascinated by odd reflections for about as long as I’ve been studying light. There’s a website dedicated to this kind of photography: The Mirror Project. It has accepted a few of my submissions along the way.
On my travels, phase one, I took a flash photo of a restaurant's urinal that was full of ice and lime slices. When I left the toilet I was getting some strange looks - presumable the flash going off was seen from outside.
On that front, there is a toilet in Melbourne that has concave mirrors in the urinals to boost their clientele's egos.

Concave mirrors? That's big of them.

The ladies toilets have tall convex mirrors to make the ladies look slim. So I have been told...
