I'll be your mirror, a photo from Arizona, West

Photographer's Note

scenes from the andy warhol exibit at the scottsdale museum of contemporary art. this here is the famous marilyn monroe screen prints.

"I'll be your mirror
Reflect what you are, in case you don't know
I'll be the wind, the rain and the sunset
The light on your door to show that you're home

When you think the night has seen your mind
That inside you're twisted and unkind
Let me stand to show that you are blind
Please put down your hands
'Cause I see you

I find it hard to believe you don't know
The beauty you are
But if you don't let me be your eyes
A hand in your darkness, so you won't be afraid

When you think the night has seen your mind
That inside you're twisted and unkind
Let me stand to show that you are blind
Please put down your hands
'Cause I see you

I'll be your mirror
(reflect what you are)"

This is cool. But I think perhaps a reflection of a person on the glass in the distance might have been even cooler...what do you think?

Very good idea on this photograph of reflection with the right accompanying descriptions. The photo is well composed and with good tonal values for a black and white.

Good POV & composition - the reflections work really well here & the use of B&W is perfect for the shot. The note & choice of song are, of course, appropriate!
