During my St. Patrick’s Day stint in New York City, I had some time to kill before my photo assignment, so I walked around the West Side with my camera in hand and at the ready.
Park Avenue was brisk and sunny, and I took a few photographs here and there. At one point, I walked past Scully and Scully, a high-end luxury home decor and furnishings store, and of course I took some pictures at that location as well.
In Scully and Scully’s window display was a nautical mirror, in which the convex-shaped glass allowed an amazing view. Let me see what I can get from this. I aimed my Nikon D700 at the mirror and got a few shots. Oops. Chuck’s in the picture. Can’t have that. Might get seven years’ bad luck if that happens.
So I moved to an angle where I could get a decent image that didn’t include me in the shot.
And as I was taking pictures, a young woman walked up to the window display – and seemed entranced at the desk set on view.
Can I get this?
Well, I can at least try, can’t I?
That’s the shot through the window – into the nautical mirror – and the reflection of the girl and her entrancement at the desk set – as well as the “Scully & Scully Inc.” signage.
Oh, and here’s a closeup, with the borders of the nautical mirror cropped out.
Okay, people. Have at it. Caption time. Photo by Chuck Miller, caption by you.


Mirror, mirror on the wall. I can’t afford you afterall.

I wonder if I can get this at Rent-a-center?

I expected a mirror image of the signage — backwards.

Nah, disregard. (It IS backwards.)
Haven’t had my quota of a.m. coffee yet.
