I got the idea for this when recently going through some of my father-in-laws old film negatives. It shows house they used to live in which in time became abandoned and was eventually demolished.
Thanks for the comments, they’re very helpful.
My in-laws, who lived in the house when they were a young married couple, were so thrilled with the way the image turned out, they want a print of it. That alone made the whole thing worth while ;-)

Great idea. I like the composition, with the curl of the negative. The diagonal relection thing detracts from the effect and goes right through you only subject.
great idea but does not convey "abandoned" in a strong way... although I do understand that the text tells me that the house might have been abandoned. 6
Interesting take on the challenge. I wish there was a bit more depth of field here, so that the full frame would be in sharp focus.
However, I think you did a great job of capturing most of the detail on the frame, and the film strip really pops against the nice velvety black background. Very nice work!
