Gideon,

I truly find this photo wonderful. Your clothing, hat and gesturing hands (holding the hidden camera) and expression give me a tender reminder of my departed dad. I really enjoy the slight transparency and and coloring. Fine self portrait.

like an altar, maybe for a deceased parent who visits earth on All Soul's Day?
I also like how you positioned yourself inside the oval shape looks which makes it look like a mirror, but the outline of your reflection show that it is not.

Sandra,

Re the ghostly feel you mention and the candle - I'm aware of it. I entered this piture in a challenge on a local photo website. I called the picture "In My Memory - A Self Portrait" there.

This has quite a ghostly feel to it, it actually looks as though you are about to pick the candle up.
