A little group at kinder, that's me in the blue dress. It's 1973 in Frankston. I wonder whether anyone else can recognise themselves in this photo.
It's January and Self Portrait Challenge is again looking back at the new themes from 2011 and combining two or more of them into a new self portrait for this month.
For now, I'm sticking primarily with some leftover ideas for December's theme, "Idioms."
Namely,
Balance the Books - to determine through bookkeeping that financial accounts are in balance.
vs.
Cook the Books - to falsify a company's financial records.
Besides the obvious Idioms, I'm saying that it qualifies for Literature.
Tiny Words works, I suppose.
The top image is Defying Gravity in a way.
Again with the top image, I'm saying that the Beatles Song, "Carry That Weight" works (or "Sure to Fall"). Surely there's a Beatles Song for the bottom image: "Happiness is a Warm Gun Book??" // "In Spite of all the Danger?"
My mom surprised me with a poster of me as a 5-year old flower girl! I think my hair was the same...

I was 14 here. My uncle took this picture of me in my grandparents' backyard in Jacksonville, by the pool. Yes, that's right... rather than, you know, swimming in the pool and having fun, I was wearing a plaid blazer and being bershon. I am pretty sure that was my grandfather's blazer, and I'd bet money that I was wearing it with shorts and either Birkenstocks or those burgundy Mary Jane Doc Martens. Ah, 14. At least I didn't get a sunburn in this outfit, I guess. :)
September 1970.
Oslo, Norway.
My aunt's house by the fjord.
Apparently I spent my 1st birthday in Norway.
As part of the hen party weekend, we had an '80s dance class.' Which we had to dress up for appropriately, of course.
(The central living area of the house was two floors high, hence this rather odd perspective - it doesn't get easier to look at however I rotate it...)
I was perusing Popular Photography website today and found an article on the digital black and white work of Cole Thompson. Being inspired by his work, I decided to go back to an image from fall that I never uploaded.
According to the Popular Photography article he will spend 50 hours on one photo, and often uses the blue channel to convert to B&W.
Well, I did neither of those in this picture, but I did use a somewhat unconventional conversion.
I created three seperate b&w layers. The first (bottom) layer was done with Image > Adjustments > Gradient Map, and selecting a black to white gradient. The second (middle) layer was done with Image > Calculations, and selecting the Red Channel for both sources, and setting the blending mode Multiply. The third (top) layer was done the same way as the second except using Overlay as the blending mode. I then copied the first (bottom) layer and pasted it as a layer mask on the top layer.
my two bros.
one of my favorite pictures of them,
even if they were put up to it.

This is alittle different for me. Although the editing could have been better, I think I managed to bring out the point of the photo alittle.

They NEED us as babies, they NEED us even more as teens because the world they live in is not nice, the world they live in doesn’t show grace, the world they live in is full of hate. There is good but I have sadly seen mostly not so good and it saddens my heart and I can’t possibility save them all. This is our Aus and we pray this only makes him stronger, we pray he can stand up for who he is and we pray it makes him into the man he is growing into, so far I’m not disappointed in how he handles it but it does make me sad to see him depressed because of it.
This was the day we picked up Abby. Her name was Bambi and she sure didn't look like she does now. I think she actually appreciated the change in looks and the name change. No offence but BAMBI? Her mission in life from that day on was to try and irritate Sam and Monty as much as she could. She has since mastered that.
Op 4 april 2017 terugblik naar 4 april 1984
Vandaag is het precies 33 jaar geleden dat Sportverslaggever Theo Koomen verongelukte.
Op 4 april 1984 versloeg Theo Koomen in Enschede de wedstrijd FC Twente-MVV. Tijdens de nachtelijke rit naar huis kwam zijn auto in botsing met een tegenligger. Koomen overleed ter plaatse. Op zijn vroege dood, anderhalve maand voor zijn 55e verjaardag, werd met grote verslagenheid gereageerd.
Zoals bijna iedereen Theo Koomen gekend heeft, achter op de motor bij de Vlaming Raymond Nackaerts tijdens de Tour de France.
Shoot with Jillian Venters, the Gothic Lady of the Manners, at Starfish Studios, Seattle, WA. August 2009.
Photography by Libby Bulloff. Ibanez RG-7620 guitar on loan from Nathaniel Johnstone.
Tried to make this look like a much cleaner, happier version of some of the photos you'd see in goth zines circa the mid-90s. Time heals all!
I've been confronted once again to situations which happened 20 years ago when the edge of history made a cut one more time. It was revolutionary autumn of 1989 when people behind iron curtain had met in the streets and demanded change. My generation had been too young to be allowed to participate. Me and my mates were watching those events like tourists in own country. And these memories now return as flashes in the dark, revealing obscure development of history in time.
Day 10--Nostalgia.
When I was little I got a free promotional camera from a bank that went out of business. It was a terrible camera. It never wound the film right, so every picture I took with that camera was double-exposed. Most of those pictures were just a mess, but some were surprisingly cool. I had shots of people suddenly flying over earthquake wreckage or swimming with the whales at Sea World, and I could never predict what would be in that photo envelope when I picked it up at the store.
I haven't thought about any of that in years, but today I was looking at my two favorite shots of the day and started missing those random double exposures. That's just not something that happens with digital, unless you make it happen after the fact, so that's what I did.
Emily sat in this box when she was a baby at Christmas, and now I'm recreating the scene with Annika. (Yes, there are two flashback stories in one double picture!) The other picture is my Christmas tree through a water glass at night. It's weird, but I wanted to try something different, and I like it. :o)
When we first started free lensing I tried taking a picture of this pond and failed miserably. This time it wasn't quite so bad!
