I think this image needs a title. I have been looking at the light that falls here at the mirror in our entry for almost a year now. This image has been in my head for most of that time. This image came out just how I imagined it way before I shot it today.
I wanted me to fade into the background as a photographer should in any photo he takes. Whether we are in the image or not, the photographer is part of the image, or should I say the image is part of us? Also, every picture is just an illusion and a mere reflection of reality. Yeah I was just trying to make illusions to what photography really is; a simple reflection.
This is my version of American Gothic ... maybe we could call it "Middle Class Reflection".
