Variation 8 of 13 -- Light on Her Feet

            “For in and out, above, about, below,
'Tis nothing but a Magic Shadow-show...”

Easily my most successful photos have been of these feminine feet, shown with and in an ornate mirror, plus plush Persian rugs. This borderless collage (a ‘piedmontage’?) was cobbled together from the image with most symmetry possibilities, both for fun and to replace the cover for the album containing the full set.  Eighty toes in one pic -- could that be a record? 😀   (Since asking that question, I have seen that it's a long way short.)

Mirrors have always fascinated me. A liking for female feet took a little longer to emerge, but it persists (though not to the exclusion of anything else feminine). Interest in Persian carpets came later still. The one seen here is silk, from Qum. The image itself has some elements common to many oriental rugs and carpets -- multiple axes of symmetry, a central medallion, and corner spandrels.

The primary element is in the top left-hand quadrant, where natural window light came from the right and above. However, putting it together with its transformations seems to do something strange to the light overall, as if there were multiple artificial spotlights involved, making the heels seem three dimensional and rising out of the frame. 

This version even more than the original reminds me of Renaissance trompe l’œil domes and ceilings, which often show foreshortened anatomy, including feet, seen from below and against blue skies.  Portrait orientation has an interestingly different feel…
