I am going to have some fun with this mirror image thing on photos of our closest relatives. Then, I will be done…

With the animal portion of this series… HA!

Okay, follow along with me on this multimedia journey. That right there is what happened when I took this image…

And put it through a digital filter called: ’emboss’. The image is of this…

Yes, it is the very first project I made in my glass blowing class, a paperweight. Except the photo above that one was taken with a macro lens for super close up photography, and it was taken in a dark room with the paperweight on a stand that has little LED lights in it that change color. That is already a few types of media, am I right? Are you with me so far?

All the rest of these images are versions of the first one in the post, so I am doubling up on the filters. That one is a ‘neon’ filter, on top of the ’emboss’ filter.

I guess the point I am making is that if you consider photography and glass blowing to be forms of media, and you take in the fact that there are layers of digital media going on…

And you remember that a blog is also media… which is just plural for ‘medium’, or so I seem to recall…

Then, well…

Then this is a whole lot of media.

Double mirror images of a hairy little spider.

Same with that one.

But even without doubling up on the mirror effect…

Spiders can be very entertaining.

I call this quadruple mirror image of a black widow spider:
Arachnophobia-aibohponhcarA
Ha… see what I did there?

Artistic and creepy. We actually have black widows at our house.

A mutant spider with ten legs???

Is this whole series starting to bug you?

Does my love/hate relationship with the crack squirrels living in my head seem insectuous?

Why can’t I just let this mirror image thing bee?

Am I becoming a garden variety pest?

Is it bugging you?

Are you just preying I will stop… ha!

The symmetry of nature, as expressed with mirror imaging.

I mean, really…

What else is there to say?


I swear, these are the last mirror images of birds.

There is something about the feathers and the colors.

The symmetry is awesome.


The double mirror image worked well on this one.

Might have worked on that one, but we will never know.

Are you sick of this series yet?

The crack squirrels in my head will not let go.

I will try to move on from animals…

Right after I do some insects… and maybe monkeys.

Just enjoy the pretty colors…

That is how art works; you either like it, or you don’t…

Coincidentally, that is also how Art works. HA!
