  67. Good use of the mirror to frame this shot. Great colours too.

  68. Great composition. Is this manual focus? I’ve always had trouble getting the proper sharpness in reflections. Anyway, I love the colours and the point of view is just perfect!

  69. This art form still amazes me, I like it a lot. Especially the intense color combinations! Wonderful!

  70. I initially thought it was a painting. Then I realized, with the title, which was reflected in a mirror image … outstanding!
