Mirror, Mirror on the Wall

MCN: CGNUF-F22F6-DU1MY

This was originally designed for the new FB 1/52 Project whereby we have to take one image per week of an everyday object. It doesn't have to be the same everyday object each week, but has to be the same object type, i.e. if the theme is glasses, then I can use beer glasses, wine glasses, tumblers, etc. The shot can be of the object as a whole, in part or multiples.

My theme is mirrors, not because I am so vain, BUT because I have a collection of unusual mirrors. To me they're all magic. :-)

This is also part of my new series of images for licensing on Arcangel-Images - use this code: SYST-0087

Created with my own photographs in Photoshop, no stock used.

Trips, Number 2: Wandlebury, Early Autumn

Here are some pictures - mainly of flora - I took in Wandlebury - one of the few hilly locations in Cambridgeshire!

Some links for those of you interested for more info:

Berries

Blackberries
Alison thinks the fluffy stuff may be Old Man's Beard.

Elderberries

Red Berries - not sure what they are. If you do, please let me know.
Again, thank you Alison, I think you may be right that this is indeed Guelder Rose.

Sloes

Fluffy Things

There seems to be a spider's nest or a cocoon in this one. Not sure what it is though. Doesn't seem to be a thistle as the one below. Very architectural, a bit like a chives plant.

Fluffy things in various stages of fluffiness. Please tell me if you know what it is. :-)
This one does indeed look like a creeping thistle, thanks again, Alison.

Roots

The root system of a tree. Can't remember what tree it was. I liked the interesting textures and the 'depth' of it. I bet something lives in there that was too shy to show itself. :-)
