The shot is of a small design gallery's shop window. They're showing design interiors from the 1960s and 70s. I mirrored myself in one of a group of dangling lamps and included the table and chairs underneath in the reflection. The lamps each have another, smaller part, like a fractal of themselves, which repeats the reflection. The three lamps include sidewalk, traffic and the trees of the boulevard in wide-angle images with different perspectives. This drew my attention. For added bonus, the trees across the street shaded the window's glass enough to let me shoot the lamps without losing all in the shop window's reflection, while throwing their silhouettes across the picture, evoking a double-exposure.
This is the first time I used a single-use camera, and I very much enjoyed the plastic meniscus lense. I should use this more often, or get myself a Diana or Holga. A surprise was the short aperture time—I usually try longer times without tripod.
