My Shadow on My Body

Comment by carlacryptic:
This has been the funniest challenge for me so far. I was stuck in the house trying to figure out something to do with my shadow and finally came up with something I thought would work. I, too, wish I could have gotten even more contrast but I don't think it's THAT hard to see the hand on the mesh! Lol... the best thing is that the hand, to me, looks like Mickey Mouse's hand, not a human one, and that cracked me up. Ominous Mickey!!! :)

Anyway, thanks for all the comments, especially the wierd ones. :-)

Youth and Age

Now that the voting is over, I can post more about this. It just goes to prove that something which seems totally obvious to one person can be absolutely unclear to another. :) Youth and age go together for me because they are part of an arc which living things go through, if they are lucky to live long enough. In this case, I used the young (just having bloomed) flowers and the old (having sat in the back garden through an entire year's weather) door to represent youth and age abstractly. I appreciated the comments I received because it showed me how unclear my concept was to most people. :) I also thought of a different title, after the fact, which might have worked better - Opposites Attract...?

Lol... it's always very good to have the cockiness knocked out of one's attitude. I thought the image was perfect for this challenge and that the photograph was perfect as is. I knew other people wouldn't necessarily agree with the latter but didn't think anyone would think the concept was out of place so I live and I learn. :)
