I know well what I am fleeing from but not what I am in search of. ~Michel de Montaigne

I'm guilty of fleeing from my 52 weeks of BAM. Posting this self in reflection during a brief moment of bravery.

Good night!

    Your smile is almost getting there. :) It's as if there's a sense of shyness showing there. I like the framing and processing.

    Beautiful tones. Your shoulder , "bathed" in a sharper, brighter light , makes for a nice "contrast" in this image, I think ! What do you think, Ria ?
