Image...

I've always liked to take photographs...as in take photographs of other people/things. Never of myself. Atleast none that I'd like to share - self indulgence.

As a child I loved being photographed - I was just not aware of my own image so I didn't care. Photographs seemed fun and I enjoyed posing for them.

I'm more conscious of what I look like now. And that people generally size you up based on that. So in my mind if I don't take the picture I can't be judged. It's fine if you are jlooking at me in real form - you'll forget that image of me. But if my bad hair day is captured for even future generations to see...that's just frightening.

    Hello, welcome aboard!

    I suppose I don't have to reply your email huh? Yay!

    I agree, my mental image of self is totally different to what I actually look like, so I don't photograph myself because I get disappointed.

    word.

    Hello errbody, thanks for the warm welcome.

    Lebogang...that's SOOOOOOOOOO how I feel. Half the time I'm wondering people are on crack telling me that's me in the picture. Which makes one wonder what they REALLY look like. And how can you tell what you REALLY look like?

    Oh yeh, by the way...are nude pics allowed?
