I know who I am, but who are you?
You're not looking like you used to
You're on the other side of the mirror
So nothing's looking quite as clear...
You came in with the breeze on Sunday morning
You sure have changed since yesterday
without any warning
And you want me badly
because you cannot have me
I thought I knew you
I've got a new view
I thought I knew you well
On Sunday morning
without a warning
I thought I knew you
you want me badly
You cannot have me
Sunday morning...
~ "Sunday Morning" by No Doubt. Song that's in my head. Trying maybe to do a theme for myself for the rest of my project -- Sunday Selfies. We've only got 7 Sundays left of this year including today. Can you believe that shit?
Goes by fast doesn't it. In the beginning, we're all like...wow..this is aweseome. Then month 2 hits and you've realized you've taken a photo of everything you can thing of. How can you continue on for another 10 months. But we plow on, finding different lines, learning to appreciate different light. And then you realize there's only 7 Sundays left. I said go for the theme. Great idea. Lovely photo as always.
@losthorizon Thanks, Beau! This year has really flown by. When I started I had actually planned to use just my iPhone the whole year through. Then sometime around February, I was getting tired of its limitations. My enthusiasm and inspiration has waxed and waned over the months. Now I am feeling in a rut...then I started looking back at my project and it seems that for the past few Sundays I have inadvertently been doing selfies anyway. So I think I'll go with that for the next 7.
Yes, the waxing and waning of enthusiasm and inspiration. But when I look back at my photos, I'm pleased I did this and I'm quite surprised by some of the shots.
Ms. T the words that you use with your photos show a very deep thinking and feeling woman. The photos that you pick to go along with them are in perfect sync. Go with what you feel and what you think. I don't think you will get it wrong. Selfie Sunday, sounds great to me!
@mcmary I'm glad I did this too. It's been nice to be among others who can encourage and inspire you to keep going. And am glad to have met people here in person and online who I would never have met. :)
@04haze@soboy5 thanks, guys! I felt b&w was the way to go with this.
@thirdjoe thank you, Joseph! I try to make the pictures somewhat relevant to the songs swimming around in my brain. I find often find myself thinking about how to capture an image for them. Glad that it works sometimes :)
I like this shot a lot. Very well composed and comfy looking. As is the case with pretty much all of your song references, I am unfamiliar. Great lyrics though. Happy Sunday Ms. T.
@adamj Thanks, Adam! Hope you're having a good Sunday as well. I've been actually trying to think of songs you might know and enjoy without having any point of reference of what you like or listen to lol. Maybe I'll get lucky with guessing one of these days. I've got 40 and some odd days to figure it out ;)
I may be in the minority ... but I really liked the alternate one more ... seems more unrestrained or uninhibited .if that makes any sense ... I also like how you project sensuality without making it crass .. always elegant and sophisticated ... with just the right words thrown in ..!!
@friend2303 Ah thanks for your kind words Vijay! :) My first instinct was to post the other photo. But I thought the one I went with would be better for this site. It's so hard to choose sometimes!
@fauxtography365 I know what you mean. Some days I'm stumped as to which one to post, and sometimes it's over minor differences. I'd have to agree with Vijay. I like the other one better. I'd say trust your instincts.
@paulie yep people say go with your gut instinct, right? Some days I struggle for even one shot and other days I can't choose one out of many. These days with posting, I feel like it's feast or famine. I have a lot or nothing at all. When the year is up I will relax my own self imposed rules and just post whatever whenever if I feel like posting on this site.
@04haze @soboy5 thanks, guys! I felt b&w was the way to go with this.
