Thanks for everyone's comments. Arlene, this shot was planned. One of my neighbors thought I was crazy :) MFC

Planned Oakley Shades, and a great idea!

Well done Mike. Did you plan that or was it accidental. Either way it's successful.

Amazing, the idea is great and the execution is allmost perfect. The composition of the image reflected is very nice. I am suprised that you managed to get both the glasses and the reflected image in focus and well metered. One small remark: Perhaps you shouldn't have cropped the lower part of the frame (don't take my critique to serious though, I am actaully jealous because of the talent you are displaying here.. again !).

Once again Mike, you inspire with your magic photographic skills. These reflective sunglass shots have been done many times over but, yours is unique in it's viewpoint. Mark J

Sunglasses? Wow, that is a unique photo Mike! At first I thought it was the rear view mirror on a car. You even got good composition, color, and interesting shadows on the road. Your "Cool Rays" shot really is cool! bottles
