Default Lima: Reflected MiB

Lima a week ago, weather was dull, but I could see nice reflections from the window.

Olli, these are really good, with an air of surrealism! I can't help but think of Magritte with these photos, it's just a bowler hat away from his work. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Roger & Pio, trusted friends. The connection to Magritte is more than flattering.

I liked the symmetry as well. Also the 'pixel' car was a fun finding, as you couldn't be sure how that moving car would look like in the picture.

The MiB reference was pretty clever!

Good to get C&C from you, condyk.

Folks, I've been considering to clone out the wire crossing the 2nd picture and make a 40x80 cm print out of that. Would that be worth of it?
