These are really great shots.
Obviously you put a lot of thought and planning into your work.
As a viewer I appreciate the effort.
The last one seems to have a secret to me.
Something not said maybe.
Something you don't want the world to know.
Mirror please keep my secret.
These are the thoughts I had viewing the photo.

Thanks for sharing.

Welcome to DPS!! You are very talented and I admire your Portraits very much, Each and everyone has it's own unique appeal. The 1st B & W is wonderful.
The 2nd is full of emotion and intrigue. I think the 3rd is fun and well executed and I absolutely am enamored with the last one. How did you accomplish the hand coming from the inside of the mirror? Very well done.
Thanks for sharing these and I'll be looking for more or your work
Michael.

WOW WOW WOW !
Portraits are supposed invoke an emotion to all those that look at it not only to those who may know the subjects in the image.
You have done a marvelous job at that.
GREAT work!!
Phil

FoG + beachcomber : Thank you so much, i'm so glad you like them!

july_hymn : Thank you! I dunno if you can tell but the fog is fake, i created it on photoshop to take some of the attention away from the background!

dan.will60 : Thanks, yeah the mirror photo was quite a personal one for me at the time, I'm glad it is thought provoking!

Chewys Dad : I'm so pleased you like them The mirror one is very heavily post-processed. Think I'm gonna do a before/after sorta thing with a brief description of how i did it which ill link, but it was basically put together like a collage!

sdphil : Thanks so much, Phil. Thats such a lovely comment

EDIT: Before/After Link for the mirror photograph!
