How forlorn and dreamy-eyed these two mannequins look. Perhaps they're wishing they could be outside, each doing their own thing in the busy street, instead of standing together in the same sad window.
A very clever photo. Good thing you explained the mannequin nature of the figures because I was thinking real people's reflections / shadows on the glass.
As others wrote - reflections are difficult to capture. Very interesting composition!
Re your question at San Francisco Bay Daily Photo, «Louis» doesn't always take the photo from exactly the same spot - he moves around his balcony according to what he's trying to capture.
This is award winning! Their stare seems lost and sad...and somehow I connect their image with the big anononimous building in the reflecion... if you see what I mean...

Que limpio reflejo ... como dos grafitis pintados en la fachada del edificio ... muy interesante ... un saludo.
ReplyDeleteHanno l'aria piuttosto triste, ma la foto รจ molto bella!
ReplyDeleteThis is very clever. If you had not mentioned mannequins in the caption, I might have thought these were two rather expressionless women gazing out.
ReplyDeleteVery cool image.
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovey photo!

They do look wistful, as though there's so much more fun to be had outside.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful shot!

ReplyDeleteHey folks, thanks all of you for the wonderful response to this post I'm thrilled you liked it.
ReplyDeleteGreat shot. Reflections can be so cool.. this one sure is.
ReplyDeleteI love this shot, and I actually like the frozen and indifferent look of those mannequins, they're trying to be nothing more than, well, mannequins:)!
