A really cool idea. I like how you framed yourself with the other photos within the mirro. Excellent work

Love the idea!

At first I thought that I would like to see your face (like if you held the camera down a bit in front of you instead of right over your face, like some people do in these kinds of photos). But I totally get why you did it that way... you as photographer is really the point anyway.

I love this - very creative! But I would try to include at least one recent close up photo in the mix....just to see what you do look like now :-)
