CommentThis image works on a double set of reflections. I was trying to capture an unreal element of electric light colour juxtaposed with a living creature. The thinking is that nothing is real in reflections. In a topical way, the double reflections lead us straight to this image being fake news about fake news. On the other hand, the duck is probably real.
