 This is my version of an iPod. Still sounds great and it doesn't get any better than Tina! Her "Steamy Windows" was the imputus to create this shot. Simply sat infront of the opened glass door of the stereo and bracketed three shots with various lighting set ups and no flash. Chose this one because of the headphone cord seemingly going into the set and passing over to the reflected image.

This image will invite the bell curve, however, my vote will be on the higher end. It is very creative with the subdued reflection where the viewer gains a slight hint of the features. Bumping up.

Interesting shot. Mysterious. Makes the view look closely to see whose there. However, I find the "TINA" program just a little distracting, as it tends to pull my eye away from the part of the image I want to see. I'm sure you meant it to be part of your documentary portrait, but it just jumps out too much....for me, anyway. Otherwise, great shot <7>
