Today, December 1, is Theme Day across the CityDailyPhoto (citydailyphotoblog) community. Sometimes, I struggle with the theme. Sometimes, it comes right away, although boring. I attempt to search out the theme seen from a different slice of life. Sometimes, I feel I fall short of the mark. At other times I sit back and release a small grin. I always run the theme by Elenka, whether I have a photo in mind or not. I don't like boring. I like to try to get a different slant on the subject. I certainly didn't want any shot of the camera looking out a shop window, if I could help it. I had an idea at the ready for this one. Since I've been stacking and chopping wood for awhile. I was thinking a 'chopping shot' with an alarming cry of-- LOOK-ing OUT!
Then Elenka said, "Hey, just shoot you and the bag, and get it over with."
Here I am 'looking out' at the world.
Playing a bit of hide and seek.
Grin.
Hmm, I always wondered about that bag. It's the only way I know you.
ReplyDeleteHere's looking in. My cat would crawl in the bag with you. That would be a great picture to capture.
ReplyDeleteMine too.
DeleteBirdman, your self-portrait is so fetching! I am pleased to note that Elenka is "looking out" for you; someone has to do that for you on occasion!
ReplyDeletegood save, elenka!
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I might've pointed the camera out the window. uh oh. xx
ReplyDeleteHey, I've done it enough too.
DeleteHow does the world look from behind that brown paper bag?
ReplyDeleteIt works!!!!!
ReplyDeleteGood job, Birdman!
ReplyDeleteGood one, Birdman!! ;-))
ReplyDeleteWise Words of Elenka! So, what IS the story of that bag anyway?...other than you have me convinced that it is indeed you...
ReplyDeleteGood one. Life behind the mask.
ReplyDeleteThe time has come when you must show yourself!
ReplyDeleteI count myself privileged to know what lies behind the veil.
ReplyDeleteThe first time I saw your pp, I thought you were the elephant man. And that thought still strikes me, every time I visit. But I've gotten used to it now.
ReplyDeletePerfect theme day choice.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea Elenka! A very funny choice for this theme day.
ReplyDeleteIn a kind of way, we, bloggers , are all living behind a mask..
