man in the mirror

April 10, 2011

In February I went to the Rose Bowl Flea Market in Pasadena, Calif., one of the largest of its kind. On the second Sunday of every month, 20,000 buyers and almost 3,000 vendors gather around the famous stadium to sell junk and hunt for treasures. While I was there, I played around with the reflections of people in the mirrors that are displayed all over the place.

Some of these pictures I really liked, so this weekend I went there again to hunt some more mirror shots. Here are some selects from both days:

Dean Stockton, of London, England, is reflected in a mirror displayed by a vendor as he plays with his four-year-old daughter Olivia at the Rose Bowl Flea Market in Pasadena, Calif., Sunday, April 10, 2011. The Stocktons heard about the flea market back in England and decided to include it in their trip to Los Angeles. ''We planned the market around our trip,'' Dean Stockton said.
