(Due to circumstances beyond Julie’s control (just for fun) her self portrait has been delayed!)
It wasn’t difficult choosing which gadget to use for my self portrait - how could I recreate myself as anything other than a Warhol inspired iconic pop art, pseudo Marilyn Monroe? LOL! And of course, I just had to hang my artwork on the wall of a gallery! How could I resist? But then I tried a neat trick - I captured my own reflection in a mirror. Which to use? You can decide which you prefer!

Entitled: Watching Me, Watching You!
also displayed at the Museum Of Modern Art

Top tip: I found that setting the camera on portrait didn’t work as the flash went off and was reflected in the mirror. So I set it on landscape and voila - it took a self portrait!
Oh! And just one more!

“Capturing you, capturing me, watching you, watching me!”

Next week’s Photo Friday for 16th May has been chosen by CuriousC:
“Doors, Doorways, & Entries…. to the soul, the house, a city, whatever…”
Future Photo Friday titles:
Friday 23th May : Title by Julie: Emotion
Friday 30th May : Title by CordieB: Phantasmagoria
Friday 6th June : Title by Author: Diptychs
(or Triptychs if you prefer to use 3 images)
(Diptychs - two is better than one! Tell a story in just two frames. Get creative. Think in pairs! The aim of diptychs / triptychs is to make an interaction between two / three photos in such a way that the whole work has a greater value than its components).
