who are these people in the mirror?
With the time approaching let’s celebrate the coming of the new year.

I guess a happy dad and his girl! Am I right? :-)
Strange kind of shot anyway, I'm wondering why the window looks like this. Flash?

@Behrooz: no flash, just glare, as to the 2 people on the mirror its me and my wife, she looks young because she feels young ha ha
@shotzz.eu: yes the very famous yellows in NYC, regards D

There are so many strong images in this shot at first I thought it was a Photoshop composite. What a great eye you have to capture so much in one shot!

Nice one.. the numerous reflections are great. Looks like you picked a cold week to visit

Jp from Downingtown, United States
If a measure of a great photograph is that it keeps you looking- this does it for me.
The more I look- the more I find.
Well done.
