Double Reflection Orb Face Photo # 3

Photo date: December 3, 2014.  Photographer: Mark Mahin.

This is one of a series of photos I have done in front of a bathroom mirror. I have used this mirror to create double reflection. The larger water drops you see in the center of this photo are directly photographed, not reflections. On the left and right of these, you see mirror reflections of the water drops in the center. The plastic object is a container filled with water. There was only one container; the photo shows two reflections of this container.  I am using this technique to create water drop orb face photos of a type that would be all-but-impossible to fake (because of the difficulty of accurately faking all the reflections, water motion, shadows, faces, and movement).

First, here is the larger photo (click to see the full 1652 by 726 photo):


Now for the closeup cropped from part of the photo above. We see yet another example of the orb centrifuge effect, in which orbs swiftly circle the outer edges of a water drop.
