Week 3: Starting over

The Carousel mirror
Oh, dear. This is actually not a very good photo, but I was too enamored with the mirror to care.
I suppose the concept was Me being Mama, escorting the Little One on the Carousel, with 'reflection' being the self-portrait theme.
The idea is not bad, but execution? Totally lacking. Hhh... need more practice.
But I'm having fun.

I know I am not following any program of any form. Just roughly posting a photo (minimum) per week of self-portrait. There are, I believe, themes should you join some groups etc on flickr or whatever. I guess I just prefer to be on my own first, until I have proven that I can follow through the weekly posting.

The themes, which I've talked about before, is really helpful in coming up with a creative concept. Like last week's shadow? I am still fascinated enough to think of other different ways of doing it.
As for my self-imposed theme this week, reflection, I find it somewhat harder, although there are certainly old ideas floating around, like using kitchen utensils, pots and pans and any other reflective surfaces as your 'mirror'. Still.. I guess it's not really easy to get a good picture of a reflection.

Still have not decided on this week's theme yet, but hopefully will get one done before end of the week.
In the meantime, here's another reflection from this week.
It's a better one, but I do hesitate from posting it as my main entry, as it is already a main entry in my other blog.
Hhh... I think I should take even more photos next time. Haha!
