Mirror, Mirror...

When you photograph pianists there are always certain positions you try. Having the grand piano cover reflect the pianist is one widely used composition. Here I had this composition in mind and caught the pianist Joaquin Achucarro dreaming a bit while he was reheasing for our concert. This created something 'else' to the photo, at least I thought so. Like the soloist was asking the magic mirror will the concert be good tonight (and it was!).
