Title: The intrepid photographer at work
Post by: RBSinTo on July 29, 2017, 02:26:08

Taken earlier this summer in the Food Court in the Toronto Eaton Centre Shopping Mall.
My wife and I were spending an afternoon with our Son, Daughter-in-Law, and their two children, and when they scattered to the various kiosks to get lunch I spotted a young man seated along the wall. I liked the repeating pattern of seats and tables and the horizontal bands of colour, and I grabbed this shot. It was only after getting back the slide that I noticed my reflection in the mirror.

Thanks Brent.
when I realized that I was in the picture, but in a very minor way, it reminded me of the painting "Landscape with the fall of Icarus", thought to be painted by Pieter Brugel the Elder.
