Something I Have Never Done Before

Yesterday’s photo shoot was the first of its kind - the subject was someone who rarely gets a chance to be photographed, and that’s ME.

I’ve been planning for months to do an artistic self-timer session, and what can I say - I finally made it!

Is there a difference between posing for a friend or for a camera on a tripod that you set yourself?

Well, it’s definitely more common to see two people taking pictures of each other. A person posing alone in front of a camera in the middle of the forest, wearing a woolen sweater when it’s 25 degrees outside would be a pretty funny sight. And yes - it certainly was for the local hikers.

But you know what - yesterday’s session brought me so much joy that I never thought - running back and forth through the tall grass, lying on the ground, taking one photo after another and eagerly waiting for the result -that’s something I think everyone would like to experience. It’s like a chemical experiment where you are the main reactant.

Bellow you can see some photos I took yesterday. This is just the beginning (there is a huge room for improvement!) of my “self-timer experiments” - I hope I won’t forget how much fun it was.

STARTED. Now I don’t regret not trying.

Tightrope walking. Is it? ;P

You’ve just seen more photos of me than there are on all the other posts on the website together. ;)
