Taking a Picture of My Daughter's Portrait (Originally uploaded by randubnick)
Last night, I posted the pastel portrait of my daughter that I drew when she was a baby. I photographed the portrait yesterday, while I was helping my daughter hang paintings in her new place. While I was photographing, I was concentrating on avoiding reflected light in the glass. I didn't notice that I was also photographing myself in the mirror next to the painting! This photo was an unintentional self-portrait. I liked the idea of this double image, and the way it plays with layers of time. So I cropped it a bit to get the composition I wanted, and here it is.
