Magic Window

Grainy 35mm film photo from 1975. A construction worker is installing a large glass window pane on the ground floor of a brick house. The reflection in the glass, however, correctly shows the sunny suburban garden behind the photographer. Through the clear glass, instead of seeing the interior of the room, we see a view looking down from a skyscraper at night onto a neon Tokyo metropolis. Visual anomaly, restrained horror, analog texture. Tip: tweak the aspect ratio if your subject reads better tall or wide.
