Looking in to the ... present!

@tdaug80 Frogger (Tim) was my get pushed partner this week and asked me to create an image using the Droste Effect. This effect known in art as an example of mise en abyme, is the effect of a picture recursively appearing within itself, in a place where a similar picture would realistically be expected to appear. This produces a loop which mathematically could go on forever, but in practice only continues as far as the image's resolution allows.
I am looking after my grandchildren during the school holidays so got my oldest grandson Brodie to model for me and had him looking into a globe. Probably not the best idea, but didn't get a chance to try another.
@tdaug80 here is my response to your get pushed challenge.

@dkbarnett Excellent response! That subject works so well for this challenge. I'll have to try one of these for myself.

Great storytelling capture.

Beautifully done! Thank you for the challenge you’ve given me. For yours, how about working with opposites? Any way you want to interpret that, whether subject matter, differences in light or composition etc. Let me know if that won’t suit.
