Great title that shows an understanding of what makes this photo magical. I love the way this disorients me. I just want you to know that this was in my personal Top 6.
Visually, I really like this shot. Conceptually it also works really well. I get the reflections work as headstones. The connection with the title does make this a shot to look at and ponder about more than average. Though I cant help wonder if there could be a more cheerful approach as the dog is quite cute :) (just commenting, no vote)
I've come back to this about three or four times now. It just keeps growing on me and I don't even know why!? I keep bumping it up, but now I can't bump any further : )
Wonderful stuff!! : )
This is one of those compositions that can play with your mind. At first, I know that the poodle is taking a nap on the floor with the windows reflected on the polished wood floor. But the overhead angle looking down makes it look as if he is 'walking' on solid ground passing by windows. The interesting angle does make it look as if, in his dreams, he walks past some 'heavenly' windows in the sky. Indeed those window reflections take on the invoked idea of clouds.
