Removing the illusion

A good magician never reveals his secrets, but as I'm neither a magician nor particularly good, I'll show you how I created the library illusion with mirrors.

It took quite a few hours over several days playing with the positioning to make sure the viewer didn't see themselves looking back at them.

The Library

If you can't make out the mirrors in this picture, click and go to the Flickr page, I've been able to add tags to the picture on Flickr but they don't show up on other sites

Welcome

Welcome to my new blog - I decided my miniatures deserved a home of their own.

I'm also trying out for the first time, the static page labels and have written two long posts, one about my interest in miniatures and the other about an ongoing project "The Library" inspired by Terry Pratchett's Discworld series and the Library of Unseen University.
Then, of course, I found that being static information pages, they won't show here as a normal post, so here I am, welcoming you and hoping you'll go and read the other pages and come back for more!
