Combining reflection and perspective
In some creative photography, photographers use suspended mirrors to capture unique effects combining reflection and perspective. For example, when photographing the exterior of a building, placing a suspended mirror in a specific position to reflect part of the building can add complexity and interest to the frame. The suspended mirror acts as a bridge connecting reality and imagination, making the photo feel mysterious.

Breaking conventional composition rules
Traditional photographic composition often follows certain rules, such as the rule of thirds or the golden ratio. However, the suspended mirror breaks these established patterns, offering new possibilities for composition. Photographers can create asymmetrical, non-linear compositions by adjusting the position of the suspended mirror. This approach that defies convention can pique the viewer’s interest, focusing their attention on the image itself and prompting deeper reflection on its meaning.

Creating a dreamy atmosphere
Suspended mirrors can also be used to create a dream-like ambiance. Especially when shooting night scenes or subjects in dimly lit environments, the blurred reflections produced by the mirror can evoke a sense of unreality. Photographers can take advantage of this by intentionally causing slight movement in the suspended mirror during the shoot, resulting in motion blur, further enhancing the mysterious quality of the image.
