adventures in reflective surfaces
Milan, Italy
Naviglio Suicide
While walking around the Naviglio District in Milan, I found this mirror which was installed to allow cars exiting the gate on the other side of the street (seen in the reflection) to see oncoming traffic, which usually moves at the steady pace of a small asteroid.Because the streets are so narrow, there is only one sidewalk and it can be seen in the mirror on the other side of the street. This picture was one of about ten. All of the other ones were severly blurred such that all one could make out was the look of sheer terror on my face.
