Vanity and vulnerability collide in Moa Karlberg's 'Watching You Watching Me.' Karlberg is a Swedish photojournalist who shot 'Watching You Watching Me' from behind a two-way mirror.
I really like what Karlberg did here, but I can't help feeling like it was an extreme invasion of privacy. Regardless, it does make for an incredibly interesting photoshoot. Each subject is completely unaware that they're being photographed, leading to some extremely genuine and thought-provoking shots. You'll think twice about looking in the mirror after you check this one out.
