This is the Fifth official Monday of this challenge.
Make a self-portrait every week, based on a new theme.
The new theme will be posted on Monday.
It was so great to see all of your inspiring pictures last week, we did look blue in every way!
This weeks selfies must be based on this weeks theme: The Other Side of Me
Jani M @janmaki suggested last week to do a theme about our Evil Twin. He said: "Everybody is so nice here in 365, could be cool to see the evil side :-) "
I thought I would make this theme a little broader. You can show a different side of you, ugly, evil, sad, honest, angry, crazy, and so on...
And this weeks selfies are also date-restricted. You only can take and post them this week!
You can post your self-portrait in this thread and tag it with monday-sp.
Have fun!!! I'm sure we'll all look really different this week!
And just for me, if you have a great idea for the next challenge, please post it here, it will help me to keep this thread going!
Also, for the next challenge, I propose the tasteful nude idea.
I'm still trying to get around to doing it myself (the whole exposing too much of me idea scares me...) but if we all got naked together....
@tashachawner Help!!! I'm not sure if I'm brave enough for that myself! I sure want to try, but my whole family is watching my project! I'm a brave Christian girl, you know...:-) But maybe, really tastefully, I have to think about that... Or you start next weeks theme, instead of me ;-)
Like this theme!! I may have to ask people near me what is my opposite.... maybe an idea for another week could be "bare your soul". where you have to take a photo of your insecurities? I know that would be a major tough one for me. I appologise if this has been done before, only a newbie :-)
Dear Gertie K.,this weeks theme is very interesting.If you have a moment please look at my paintings at grahamdellerpaintings.com because I do a lot of evil twin imagery.I find our individual dualities fascinating.Am looking forward to participating.Thanks for the idea.
Cheers,
Graham
@geertje this should be really fun and challenging.
For another week you coulg have it be"western" or somwthing like that.
(me also being a Christian I would not partisapate in the challenge if it were the tasteful nude idea)
@megc1 Thank you for your idea and support! I know I wasn't alone in that. Maybe I can make it more broad by changing it to 'skin' and people can show as much skin as they would like...
@rudit You can post them all week, although, I did put this one up 7 hours ago... But you have the rest of the week to post, Monday only refers to the day the new challenge starts. Don't ask, i didn't come up with the title...
@geertje You can change the name if you like :) I only started this theme because I was posting something from a flickr group that my friend started called "me again mondays" and some 365'ers asked me to start it here. So the name can change if people find it confusing! You are doing an awesome job! I will keep playing :)
I've had such a busy day and was thinking what I could do about my photo. This is what I came up with. Truthfully it's my left side flipped so not sure if it counts as the other side of me but it's supposed to represent before and after my hair was dyed this evening :o)
Life gets too crazy that I feel that I'm always sitting on a stack of books and unable to do anything with it. The other side of me -- loving the peace and quiet.
I could not decide for sure exactly what the other side of me is, so I decided to go for two other sides. Since I consider myself to be middle-aged, the 2 other sides of me would be the younger me and the older me. So I used a couple of fun apps to accomplish the task... "moreBeaute2" to help transform me to a younger me and "Age Me" to transform me to an older me.
A side note... When I asked Marvin if he would still love me when I looked like the "old me" he said, "Yes, because I won't be able to see very well by then!"
@grammyn i will have to say that i kinda followed your lead so thank you as well! I think this is truly a fun challenge. @marilyn thanks! You and your better half have a good sense of humor. I like that! Also you know more apps than me. (Actually i don't know any). I admire you for that. I am not the most technical person.
I really don't have that whole split personality thing happening but after thinking for a while I realised there are things I don't show anyone. I used to dance everywhere when I was younger, spinning and prancing around the house, but as I've gotten older - and there is more of me that wobbles, I only dance when there's no one around. So the hidden side of me is...I love to dance
Even though I try hard not to show it, there are times when I'm worried and my hands often are a clue that I am. This would be "the other side of me" at times.
Hello everybody. I feel like I'm letting you down a bit, not commenting and stuff.
I really like all of your portraits! I'm feeling a bit down this week due to health issues, so this is a plain and honest selfie, a SOOC.
My evil twin is completely insane and isn't let out very often - for obvious reasons!!!!!!
This photo really freaked out my kids who don't see my twin very often (thank goodness)!
Tweets ahoy!

@mcdougall Love your collage Katie!
@psychographer Lisa, I was going to do something like this - you beat me to it!!!
A side to me that I don't often let on to other people about...
generally speaking I'm quite a loud, out going person, but when the camera is pointed at me, i get quite shy...
@tashachawner very interesting!
@alk1991 good shot
@libcreative very nice
@mommyof1 your backside much nicer than mine!
@smile4me awesome shot
@mimosa such an interesting shot
A side note... When I asked Marvin if he would still love me when I looked like the "old me" he said, "Yes, because I won't be able to see very well by then!"
@grammyn Perfect take on the theme!
@psychographer I like this idea...
@mcdougall Great idea and great processing!

@marilyn thanks! You and your better half have a good sense of humor. I like that! Also you know more apps than me. (Actually i don't know any). I admire you for that. I am not the most technical person.
Nice way to show this side of you!

Cute collage that shows MANY sides of you!
I love your humor!!!
I also love the dancers feet - very poised - I can relate to this too!
