Great photos this week guys!!

Here's mine for this week. It probably could have passed in the Automotive Comps, but I thought I'd enter it here instead since it isn't exactly a photo of a vehicle, but more an 'artistic' / 'makes you turn your head and think what-the-heck!'.

Illusion or Illustration ?

Taken about 3 years ago
Sony DSC-H2
Dos Palos, CA.

I wonder if you guys can figure out how I captured this photo. No fancy tricks or special equipment, just an odd angle which produced an even odder perspective. Good luck...

Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear, as they say on that side of the pond.

Haha.. you got me Mike!

Yeah, taken from the passenger seat, pointing the camera at the side mirror. I guess the 'weirdness' of the photo comes firstly from how the tree is position right at the end of the mirror, so it seems like it's stemming out from nowhere, and then the Black n White high-contrast doesn't give much hints in terms of color and tone.

Ah well, that photo's an oldy, but still a favy.
