A building and a reflection in a window.

This is another Portland, Oregon photograph, though there’s not much in it to specifically connect to that city — you could find buildings like this in any number of cities in the US.

My recollection — and it has been a few years — is that I made this photograph by aiming toward the window of a business, most likely a restaurant, and catching the reflection of the building in the windows. But the reflection was still semi-transparent, so the face on the interior display ended up seeming to float across the surface of the building — a sort of “Photoshop in the flesh” effect.
