Here's a little confession: on a minute-by-minute basis, I have no idea what I actually look like. In my mind, most of my mannerisms and facial expressions are with one of my brothers' features. Watching video recordings of myself is a jarring experience, because I'm expecting someone completely different from what I see.
As a result, I've recently taken to making faces at myself in the mirror to get used to who I am. It's weird. Am I the only one this happens to?
I am going to try and get 52 self portraits in the next 52 weeks. I may be late uploading a few owing to my job restricting my time but within 1 year, there will be 52 self portraits proudly (some) displayed in this set.
Here's number 45.

Self Reflection:
( I was not sure where to put our reflection, so I will write one here and send one as a word document on Moodle.).
Throughout this whole Triptych experience, I had a lot of ideas in mind. I wanted to put my own emotions into these three pictures. However, I had to play the safe card for this project as I was not sure if nudity was appropriate for this project. I did not want to violate any rules. But, I loved the experience, Kelsey has helped me portray what I wanted to show my target audiences. The message is very clear and that the dimming of the light complements her expressions which I really love! I have learned a lot especially while doing the creative brief, it made me organize everything and explain to my model what I wanted with full comprehension. Overall, everything turned out great at the end and hopefully would do more of this project in the near future.
Working on an Album Cover and album art for an acoustic soul group. This is just 1 of a few samples that I have been working on. These are shoots that I hand picked from the photoshoot. So more work will come after they choose exactly what they want.

This is a reflection looking into the sound booth through it's one-way window.
We're Here! working on the Mirror Project of reflected self portraits.

I'm trying to enter each monthly round of the APOY competition this year, and next month is 'Street Photography', so I thought I'd head to Spitalfields Market with the LX3 and see what I could do.
Which turned out out be nothing, as I had no confidence to take any people shots at all. So I took the easy option and pointed the camera at a building instead - they don't look back at you..
Fair play to those that get great results from their street shooting - braver than me..
Also, looks like I knocked the aspect ratio switch on the LX3 to 4:3, hence the odd shape of this one...

This camera was also sold as the "Rollei Prego Micron"
The film is outdated Fuji ISO50 slide film, cross-processed in the Tetenal C41 kit.
The back of the abandoned farm in south east Austin, Texas, had many windows of varying sizes. Rarely when you find a property as old as this do you still see many of the "live in" details. But, at this farm house every window still had some type of curtain, dressing, rod, etc.
This is my other strange obsession when out shooting architecture. I love windows, with window frames, from outside. Maybe it's from years of working as a graphic designer, but when I see windows it immediately starts drawing grids in my mind, I see compositional layouts that are so unique to me. I find it deeply inspiring. Mix that with the textures, colors, and materials of the window and it all equates to a strange delight for me.
I used to try and shoot these without ending up in the reflection but now I strive for that. The great thing about reflections is that you can see yourself in a different space, in a different way. I love that.
Even in this fragmented piece of broken glass and wood, I see a reflection of myself doing something I love. What a gift that is.

Not sure what to say about this. Instead, I'll talk about my day.
I went to work this morning. Got a pizza from Subway for lunch. Got sick about half an hour later. Got off an hour earlier than expected. Beat Justin home. He came home, we went to Chick-Fil-A. Was sick by the time we got home. He packed up his crap, and left for the weekend. I removed most of my clothes and reclaimed the spare bedroom as my "studio room" and took pictures of myself.
Now I'm going to go eat ice cream and watch TV in my underwear. Why? Because I'm home alone, and that means I can do whatever I want.
Ah, check it: my tattoo was featured on www.tattooconfidential.com/!
For the FGR group of the day, SELF-REFLECTION.
Yeah, I know sometimes I go overboard with the processing. But I thought that the processing on this one made it particularly fun. :)

I was playing around, photographing some household objects. You can see my reflection in the end of the wine stopper!
The Easter week at Shree Peetha Nilaya was blessed with blue skies, warm sun, and flowers and trees blossoming everywhere. Everything seemed to reflect the theme of new beginnings. Easter is an intense focus on God and God's plan, and everyone present honoured and celebrated this through scripture, song, self-reflection and community. Finishing with the traditional midnight/early morning singing and dancing, and the ever-popular Easter Sunday lunch, it was a powerful way to recognise spiritual transformation and a new understanding of life.

Self reflection. Documentation picture from first presentation of my Final Fantasy installation at Museo Muros in Cuernavaca (November 2006). Developing the project I was focusing on the symbolical aspect of the mirror and on general associations of the created object with popular culture dynamics observed at Mexican graveyards. The Mimetic Effect (graves disappearing from the view at some angles) was sort of pleasant surprise for me at that time.
