lost in town

Posted by akarui (Kagoshima, Japan) on 21 October 2008 in Miscellaneous.

For Isao challenge "my reflection in a misty mirror".
I thought immediatly about those mirrors which are numerous in Japan but there are quiet high...I was standing on my bicycle to take the picture, not an easy position on that rainy day...
To see all the pictures of the participants:
Isao and dj.tigersprout

Thank you very much for all your comments.
You can see the same picture in bigger size and better resolution on my new blog.

Joli portrait, et le traitement N&B + couleur est toujours aussi séduisant.

Tu es donc là.
On te voit plus mais à peine... Le mystère demeure toujours, sur le grand Olivier. Joli parapluies en tout cas et très bonne dessaturation sélective.

Coucou Olivier, super de te découvrir après tous ces mois d'échange... J'ai eu peur en ouvrant ta 1ère photo que tu ai trouvé une parade tellement ton image était petite et donc impossible de t'y voir... :-))
