5-7-14 – How We See Ourselves
-
Self portraiture.
Through a process of deep introspection, orionid brought forth this theme. And it was good.
I really thought this would be an easy theme to bring the casuals in. My bad. Maybe (hopefully) it’s just because everyone’s out enjoying the gorgeous spring weather.
I did too. I mean, who doesn’t have a selfie or 20 kicking around in their archives or on FB? Of course, casuals could filter in through the day…
Hm…maybe the average Farker is too self-conscious to show themselves? Obviously self-portraiture doesn’t have to show one’s face, as we have examples in the thread of self-portraiture that doesn’t. Hm..I don’t know…
I mean, who doesn’t have a selfie or 20 kicking around in their archives or on FB?
*raises hand* Me. My last entry is literally the only selfie I’ve ever taken (and it’s from 9 yrs ago). I only took that one to rub my friend’s nose in the fact that I was skiing and he wasn’t.
It may be that some don’t want their real selves associated with their online personas. Breaks the anonymity I guess.
Anyway, just popping in briefly to say “hi” to everyone. I’m still snowed under with work for another few weeks but had a couple of minutes and a theme that made selections quick and easy, so I thought I’d join the fun this week. And now, back to the code mines…
I’m so glad you joined in this week–you’re sorely missed! Hope these next few weeks fly by and you get some breathing room soon!
Thanks Els! Believe me, no one will be happier than me when this is all over. Except maybe my wife. 😉
Having been the wife on the same side of a similar equation, my deepest sympathies to her!
Congrats to (Be)CauseISaidSo this week!
Thanks Elsinore! Gotta say, that was surprising; but then again, most of them have been. 🙂
