My get pushed challenge this week is to take a photo that best describes/identifies who I am with limited post-processing (crop/straighten). Wow...how do you "describe" yourself in a photograph? Thought I would try a persona, but without my portrait because of the post-processing limitation (good excuse for not including a selfie!). So, I guess it's more like a flatlay? Biggest challenge ... what stuff describes me? Second challenge ... electronics say more about me when they are turned on, and they didn't want to all stay on at the same time. Anyway ... first try at describing "who I am" in a photograph.
What a treat to get to study the various things you've presented that you feel say something about you. Makes my mind wonder what I'd put in this sort of picture. Well done!
I prefer this one to the blackboard list I think... perhaps it's my own fascination with the way that the things we choose to gather around us ultimately begin not only to define who we are but to also shape and guide our lives. Very thought provoking image.
@aecasey April, thank you for both your photos that you took to describe who you are without processing. I prefer this one I think as I love the composition of this. I get a sense of who you are in this photo. It is both personal and universal.
@nanalisarocks Thanks! My old iPod died, and my new one has only three albums ... Escala, Adam Hurst's "Ritual", and Anoushka Shankar's "Traces of You" with her half-sister Nora Jones. The album pictured is Anoushka Shankar's.
@aecasey I have an iPod classic, with over 15,000 songs on it.... and I dread the day it dies...I know I can still use my library on my phone, pc and the cloud. But I LOVE my iPod.
