I decided to go with super silly, Peter Venkman of the Ghostbusters looking at himself in the mirror. He may or may not have been drinking.
I decided to go with light reflections - sunset, the firelight, the moon and the pier lights in the distance. Thanks for the challenge!

Kingsbrae Gardens!...We Walked Through Those Amazing! Gardens So Many Times!...Shopped In Their Little Gift Shop!...The Memories Are Alive & Well! Indeed!...So I Was Looking At Some Old Photos From Back Then!...I Wondered How The Photos Might Look In A Layout!...One Photo In Particular!...I Remember This Day Like It Happened Yesterday!...We Were So Happy!...It Was A Bright! Hot! Beautiful Day!...We Were At Our Favorite Restaurant...The "Harbour Front Restaurant"!...I Was Sitting...After Ray Had Just Pulled Out My Chair For Me!...He Was Just Behind Me!...We Asked One Of The Servers There If They Would Take A Pic Of Us!...And!

So Remember...This Was Back In 2008!...Before Digital...The Photo Was Smaller In Scale Than I Thought It Would Be!...After I Scanned It Into The Computer...It Didn't Look Good At All!...Remember!...Non-Digital!...The More I Tried To Enlarge It The Grainier It Got!...It Worked On It Off On On For Days...I Used A Lot Of Effects & I Had To Recolor It Too!...It Doesn't Look Perfect But!...I Think All Things Considered...It Looks Pretty Good!...I Couldn't Get The Contrast Any Better Either!...It Made The Photo Unrecognizable!...So I Duplicated It 4 Times & Added A Bevel To It!...And Then! It Started To Look A Lot Better!...I'm Wearing Sunglasses!...& Ray's Eyes Didn't Come Out So Good!...So I Decided That I Wanted Him To Be Wearing Sunglasses Too!...I Tried A Lot Of Pairs That I Had From Various Programs!...But None Looked Right!...Even With Blending! & Work!...So I Went over To Pixabay To Look For Some!...I Found A Whole Bunch!...But The Style Was What I was Looking For!...I Spied The Perfect Pair!...Just Like The Ones He Had Back Then!...I Sized Them Down!...Blended Them In! & They Had No Handles!...So I Drew In My Own Handles With The Line Tool In PSE!...I Was Pretty Happy With The Results!...They Fit His Face Perfectly!...I Recolored Them Just The Right Color!

LOVE reflections ... and you would think in the land of 10,000 lakes I would have a reflection in the water picture. So pleased to have something different and a bit unexpected from a recent day trip adventure. Thanks for hosting the challenge!
Here's mine, windshield reflection while crossing the bridge, which I have to take a picture of every time we cross.
