Photo Essay

Self-reflection

Funhouse Mirror

Every city has its fair share of glass and sculptures. It's hard for me to go to a city without catching a glimpse of myself in a reflection, and I must admit, sometimes it makes for an interesting picture too. I'm not saying I'm handsome or anything, but take a look at what I came across.

There's a mix of locations that these pictures were taken at. The main photo is the most fun one I think, taken in Singapore. It was a silver sphere in the CBD area, one of the many art sculptures installed in the area. Try to spot the other one among the other pictures :)

The rest of the pictures were taken in Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. Somehow, anywhere I go, there is bound to be something to show me a reflection of myself. The best example here is the one taken on a hiking trip up a hill outside Shenzhen. Out of a sudden, while taking some scenic shots along the hike, I saw a reflection of me. Not hard to guess which picture that is :)

So whenever you catch a reflection of yourself looking at you, take out your camera and take a photo, it will make for an interesting collection over time.
