Blurry Memories
Active Assignment Weekly: Refraction
I've been wrestling with this assignment the last few days (I've had lots of time off right now), and I felt I was just making a mess of things. So I simplified my strategy tonight and used my reading glasses for refraction, blurring a photo of me when I was 3 years old. What you see inside and structuring the frame is a candle lantern. The candle is not the only light source--so was a reading lamp to the right. I did very little in pp. This is pretty much SOOC. I'm done trying so hard in post-process.
Being 3 years old really was a blur to me, and in all my photos back then I look relatively happy. Once I hit five, however, my life fell completely apart. So this photo represents a time of innocence I will always treasure.
