My Favorite Photo

I would not call myself photogenic. I'm terribly critical of myself, especially in photos. The blog has really helped me face my physical insecurities. I have accepted who I am. I have good features and bad features. Just like the majority of people in this world. If a picture looks like me, then I will post it. Why should I hide behind my camera because I don't think I compare to others?


This is my favorite photo of me.
It's not a glamourous shot. 
I'm pretty sure it was an early morning after a birthday party involving a few bottles of wine.
Followed by a few miles of hiking uphill.

This picture is more about the unseen.
I'm in my comfort zone.
I've got my 'country' and city within reach.
  From this viewpoint, I can look out and appreciate both.

    You are beautiful! I was always hiding behind the camera, but realized that when I grow old, I want to be able to look back at my photos and see myself as well!

    I'm right there with you! I tend to use the same 2 or 3 pictures of myself for everything because they are the only ones I like! It also doesn't help that I'm always the one taking pictures, so there aren't that many of me.

    You are so beautiful! And you look so comfortable (like you said), it totally comes through the photograph.
