Camera Club Competition - the theme was self protraits. I created this double exposure by shaking my head a lot! and then blending the images together
In the day and age of constant selfies, I still don't really enjoy having my picture taken, but in the spirit of the week, I figured I should submit myself to the same thing I do to everyone else!
I'm not that good at selfies, (the kind that involves a smart phone) but I have slightly better luck with my Nikon, so here I am : )

Week 7
Because birthday, full moon, banging dress, new haircut, fresh make up, nice buzz, and nowhere to go.
July 2021
I needed new promo photos for my music/website/social media/etc, so I had my mom help me out by snapping a few! I set everything up for her and put it on autofocus, so that all she had to do was point and shoot. She literally snapped 1,700+ photos and probably only 20 were in focus or good enough to use, lol. But, I'm super happy with them! Yay! haha. She understands how hard it is to be a photographer now, though! So, that's quite satisfying.
Edit by me, of course! :)
Funny to see that this location is offering self checkout with the Project Impact sign for it, but that is likely because self checkout is a new addition to this store.
A simple funny artwork which contains myself as well, seen as a strange Monocycle-man...find it creepy? :D
Week 9
"The self is an individual person as the object of his or her own reflective consciousness." This is a quote that I copied directly from Wikipedia. Some times just before week 9, Evelyn has shown that she has recognized herself.
Evelyn just had her 2 months check up. One of the many questions that the doctor asked was, "Did Evelyn look at her hands? Did she examine her hands with her eyes?" My wife and I both looked at each other and shook our heads, "If she did, we didn't notice it." But as soon as we got home from the doctor, we can see clearly that Evelyn was examining her hands. She passed her hands one after the other right in front of her eyes and looked at them. We just didn't notice it because... we didn't know to look for that.
For week 9 then, I have decided to take a photo of Evelyn looking at her "self". I am no philosopher but in my opinion, this is a very important step for Evelyn (and for humankind or babykind for that matter). As a baby, this is the first time that she knows to move her hands not aimlessly but right in front of her eyes and knows to recognize them again and again. Evelyn has recognized herself in her own reflective consciousness. This is a milestone for Evelyn. :)
PS: Evelyn's 2 months check up was very good. She is at 50th percentile for her height and 25th percentile for her weight (and everyone keeps saying she's getting chunkier. Hmm!). ;)
