Through the looking glass, "x" marks the spot...

Having a little fun with light, shadows, shade and a mirror! I think I'll do a series with it.
Very creative. I like this:). Looks like there is a treasure of green behind that x!

Good place to hide a geocache. I like how you were able to capture some of the shadow detail so that the center didn't overpower it. You must live in Shangra La.
