Description

remember when you were young and you had your whole life waiting in front of you, innocent and undefined, ready for you to experience all the beauty it had to offer.
what did you dream about? what did you want your life to be like?

so that's me, trying to take self-portraits. not that easy with only 10 seconds on timer and no remote control.
and that's my wall featuring Anne Geddes and the pictures from her "Beginnings Calender".
you can see it here: [link] on her website.

I hope you enjoy this.

The position of the hands is expressive and immediately attracts the viewers attention. Combined with the portraits of the babies it suggests protection, desire or kindness.
Speaking of the hands, the right hand covering one of the babies intrigues me a little and the left hand is incomplete, but I imagine how hard it must have been to take the photo, since it's a self-portrait.

The light in the photo is good as the shadows and light sources even out, without disturbingly strong black or burnt areas.

The picture has 2 central points, one around the models eyes and one around the palms. However, except for the hands, there is no connection between these 2 points. I think it would help a little if you would look up, towards your hands in the next shots.

The color profile is nice and goes well with the subject of the photo.

In conclusion, I find this photo original and quite well realized. I look forward to your next ones <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)"/>
