you know this thing has always fascinated me. One day I caught my wife in front of mirror.
But seeing your photo only I thought of uploading it into my portfolio here.
Here is the photo:

Anne Desplantez Thanks for your visit! I think that the mirror is magic because the person who is in front of his own image forgets immediatly the presence of the camera.
Yours is funny too!

The special about this photo is, that it airs intimacy without the feeling of voyeurism. The camera is ignored completely but seems to be very close-by at the same. A great capture!

Anne Desplantez Thanks Stephan.

Anne, very intriguing. What at first looks like a simple shot but it really grabbed me. Not sure if it's the lady, her expression, the composition, the feel or just plain everything. Well done!

Anne Desplantez Happy to see that everyone seems to feel the same think than me: there is something special in this picture which looks like a simple shot. Maybe because of the girl who is really shy and mysterious in the real life. Thanks for your comment.

Strangely compelling; the subject appears to be unaware of the camera and totally absorbed in her routine. The lighting appears to be ambient only, but it's superb. I like it.

Anne Desplantez Thank you for your comment Tim. The subject is not a model, just a teenager I met during a reportage about holidays in a camping. She was aware of the camera, I just told her "keep water on your face" and she immediatly forgot me, I was very lucky!
