17 - Holographic

Theme 277.

I wanted to find the holograph in my passport, which was why I got it out for the Passport theme too (see post below). It was hard to get the right angle, and propping my passport between two objects, then angling myself to get the light hitting the holograph. I switched to my Tamron lens, and got one I liked, but stuck with the one from my kit lens instead:

Photobucket

It's like some weird mix of a Venetian mask and face tattoo [lol].

Also a kind of self portrait but I'll save that theme for something else ;-)

This is very cool! A fantastic result.
On another theme, the Victorian photographer in Newton Abbot was called E Kelley and the address 26 Queen St. Maybe the building is still there? You're right it is a strange coincidence that coming up, small world, hehehe :0).
