Daily Diversion #411: Arty Self-Portrait
Recently I bought the loveliest, sweetest Victorian mini-mirror.
It lives on my dresser, alongside a bunch of other pretty but almost wholly unnecessary bits and bobs.
A few days ago, I decided it would be fun to photograph images reflected in the mirror.
Quite the challenge, that.
First up? An image of myself, because it is the easiest thing to do with such a tiny mirror.

Evelina
I couldn’t resist this copy of Evelina (circa 1970), which I snagged for six cents less than the original price.
