Bruce, I definately think this image is stronger now you've lightened up the shadow areas. You can see so much more detail in the window reflection too, which makes a nice juxaposition with the reflection in the mirror. Slartibartfast

g'day bruce - i like this image v.much, and think you pegged the balance of pic frame with mirror - it's a strong graphic image with the dark area, and then on closer inspection draws you inside the shop, then back to the multiple reflections. thanks.

oops, sorry guys . . . replaced the image with a color corrected one and forgot to downsize it. Thanks for the advice slartibartfast!

Bruce, nice but massive, i think you need to re-size a little, cant fit on the screen.

I like a lot of the elements of this picture, the two different reflections, the mirror frame, the lampshade. My main quibble is the sheer amount of black on the lower left-hand side. A crop closer to the mirror, or more detail in the shadow might work better? Slartibartfast.
