Then how did you take a picture if you're not a photographer? Seriously, it doesn't take talent to click a button, as soon as your finger releases the shutter, you're a photographer. No getting away from it.

These photographs are great, it will be difficult to choose a winner.
EDIT: Admin decided to start the vote a bit earlier than originally posted, so there will be no more submissions for this month's challenge.
Thanks everyone, pics are amazing.

Good pics, just a question about the one above.
I noticed that when you placed the image into the mirror, the bottom and lower right sides bleed over the edge a little bit. Perhaps this was the look you were going for, instead of a sharper-edged image? Since you seemed interested in feedback, was curious about that.
Either way, a creative picture.

Hey. I didn't place any image into the mirror, I actually took that shot while driving the Ferrari. That bleed you notice. It really isn't a bleed. The plain of focus was the mirror (but you see the Ferrari's air vent). Everything in the for-ground and back-ground will be extremely blurred due to DOF. Now, that blur you see on the edge of the mirror, let me explain...
The actual yellow mirror casing sticks out maybe about 0.5" inch around the mirror, so since the mirror was the plain of focus, that 0.5" was blurred due to it becoming the for-ground. The only way I could of made it a sharper cut on the mirror would of been to take the image at f/10+. This was taken at F/1.8...
Hope that helps, its kind of hard to explain. You'd have to test it out yourself to know what im saying lol.
Thanks for the feedback Sha!

That was actually my first time playing and taking pictures with my camera. I usually just point and shoot but since i havent been doing nothing lately i decided to play with the features of it.
Im using a Nikon coolpix s10 that i purchased about 2years ago that i hardly use.
