our world
ourselves
our abilities.
Today she is pushing, again about ourselves,
but
like Kim I have an extremely hard time with this.....
taking photos of myself;
that is why I hold the camera!
I believe we have our idea of beauty so distorted by the fronts of magazines with those gorgeous girls, and although we know those photos have photoshop help, still the idea of not being up to snuff persists for me.
Many years ago there was a British television programme called Butterflies, in one episode the lady was sitting on a park bench and saw a lovely young girl pass by, the older lady reasoned that her own face bore the wrinkles of a longer life with many laughs, the lines from child bearing and the wear on her body from experiences, laughing, loving and living.
My face and body tell the tales of life experiences, laughing, loving and living.
I need to accept this as seen from the mirrors reflection.
Photo, not of me,
another using Radlab, I love the pictures I can make with them.
Well this may not be you, but its fantastic and maybe a lovely reflection of the You behind the image.
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely post and beautiful photo. And, this was a very difficult challenge.
