Threshold - reflections


Photo of the main doors into the area just outside the studio shows a reflection of what is behind - so is a merging of what you see before you, the 'transition' (door) and what is in front of you. This is the concept I want to explore further...





The black and white image shows the reflection (trees) a bit more effectively.

What makes a reflection seem more like reality? Probably the main thing = absence of your own figure moving within the reflection (if directly in front)
Could do this by having a video projection onto the surface, angle of camera would pick up image behind just above the height of average person.
Project by using a material for the surface which picks this up digitally, while remaining semi transparent. Is there a material like this?
