Tommie's discription of the picture: What I see in the picture is two connected mirrors off of a bus. The background is the sky. In the mirror you can see my teacher Ms.Elliott and myself. When you look at the image you can see distortion because it was a bubble mirror. © 1999, Tommie Taylor

Portrait of the photographer

Hi my name is Tommie Taylor and I’m in a class at T.S.B.V.I. Called Vision Quest. Vision Quest is a class for low vision students. The day I took that image the assignment was reflection.

What I see in the picture is two connected mirrors off of a bus. The background is the sky. In the mirror you can see my teacher Ms. Elliott and myself. When you look at the image you can see distortion because it was a bubble mirror.

Through photography I can express myself and to me when you take a picture you capture a piece of time.

Tommie's photograph was entered into Photo Imaging Education Associations 1999 International Student-Teacher Photo Exhibit & Competition. Tommie was entered into the Grade 9 and Below Classification. Her digital image "Mirrors" won 1st place and will travel in an international exhibit for two years. You can visit  http://bobcat.tamu-commerce.edu/~stang/PIEA/99results.html to see information about Tommie's competition. We are very proud of Tommie! - Denise Elliott, Vision Quest Teacher
