Photographed my boyfriend's eye using my macro rings on a standard kit lens (18-55mm) - I am reflected in his eye for a self reflection brief.
My Mary, I never saw beauty until I opened my eyes and saw myself with that smile and those eyes that leave me speechless and mesmerized. There is no greater feeling than loving yourself, though worry calls me because can I still be strong and beautiful at the same time? Who I used to be seems like a remnant of the past and now I travel into the unknown with nothing, but my heart that is yours.
A photo serioes of self portraits taken by my friend Nick Larson. This is a depiction and representation of diving deeper into myself. A conceptual thought process of who I am.

My son found some old cameras at an old drugstore in St. Augustine, Florida. I couldn't pass up the chance for a selfie :-)
I was out of town this weekend and didn't have internet access, so its a little late. This week is self reflection, or looking back on photos I've taken before and for some reason looked over. I like the face this chimp made and I also adjusted the colors a little bit in Aperture!

For the SELF REFLECTIONS challenge, taken for Flickr Group Roulette.
This was done on A2 paper, with acrylic and ink. The task for this project was to create a self portrait, but without actually doing a self portrait. When thinking of myself, I thought of the isolation I felt at the time, knowing I'm the only one I have. I tried to show how that feeling can be scary, but also calming and even beautiful. I used the vibrant blues to reflect that calm feeling, and intentionally made the girl in the centre appear ghostly and luminous. I feel this portrays her confidence in herself and her surroundings, and her contentment in her solitude.
The sad thing about acrylic paint, is that the darker the colour, the more reflective the paint becomes, making paintings like these remarkably difficult to photograph accurately. The actual painting is quite a bit more detailed, and reads a lot more accurate. Ah well.
This took me about 6 hours to paint.
Done November 2016
How many continents or countries are represented here? The batique is from Uganda, from when Mom and Paula went to visit Bryn there. I bought the water bottle there to bring to Tijuana with me. And the box in the foreground is from Bangladesh or India, from Karen for a Secret Santa present.
As a bonus, the top book on the stack of books is about map coloring!
