I actually had a half baked idea of doing this a couple weeks ago, but I never really knew where to go with it. Then randomly, sadandbeautiful went and made her own version last week which impressed me quite a bit and made me want to make sure that I did my one myself. Then when I made the Copycat Mini Challenge, I decided that I definitely had to actually do my own. And so here it is, in all its photoshoppy gimmickery.
You know I was torn on which way to go with this one. And even now I feel like I chose wrong. And ten seconds from now I will feel like I went the right way. Which is the real me and and which is the reflection. I ultimately decided that I ma the casual denim vest type inside and the shirt and tie buisness look is the reflection. But should the mirror have been the real me? Gah… I give up, I’m just posting this now
365 days
well, either way you look at it, they’re both reflections of the real you…just that one is actually shown as a "reflection". i like this and i recognized the copycat from sadandbeautiful right away!
you did a good one here….again, it’s making me wish i had me some photoshop! damn!
Very cool pic Mav. You nailed it!
Great job, Mav! And again, I’m totally flattered even though I know you already had the same idea floating around your head. 😀
This is a fantastic shot. The PS editing is excellent. I’ve done a couple reflection/mirror shots and know how much time it takes to get something done…and then to feel it somehow isn’t quite what you had in mind.
I’ll have you know I’ve tried several days and spent many hours on photoshop trying to do something like this. The angle is always off! And I gave up on the hand touching the mirror, they’re hard to line up. Anyway, just letting you know you/ve inspired something. 🙂

Seen in your 365 days set. (?)
@Miss Emily goes bananas: yeah, it really is a lot harder than one might think. But I think you did a pretty good job with yours.
Nice work.
@afunkydamsel: thanks.
