i had a totally different idea in mind, but this is where things ended up and i'm not unhappy with it :)
thank you all for the kind feedback on yesterday's chess shot...
the music to accompany this shot... i'm afraid it's rather "dark"... not sure where that is coming from as it is in no way indicative of my mood.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eW_zqMdpCn0
Looks even better large, on the black background. What I love is that it is not just a reflection of the queen and the feather (?) in the mirror but also a reflection of the mirror, on the top of the table.
Love the way the original queen is white and the reflection appears black. The rim lighting of the reflection is sublime! @gardencat already beat me to mentioning the other reflection, so I wont!
Saw this one pop up yesterday and didn't even have time for a quick fave - so had to be sure and come back to do so. Really love what you've done here.
