MLMUG's Photograph of the Month
Judged by Sally Bazrod
Valley Forge Reflections Taken by Moe Comeau Moe was leading a group of volunteers surveying hut repair needs at the Life Guard Huts at Valley Forge National Historical Park. The interior of this hut displays rare artifacts from the time, and so is locked, but visible through plexiglass. Here, the Park's Chris Wilcox explains how he built the partition to two volunteers. Little did Moe realize that his reflection in the plexiglass would even show up, much less have this "fun house mirror" effect. The photographer isn't normally in the photo, so this was a pleasant, but weird, surprise for Moe.
