Photo - a present to yourself. Sift through all the photos of you from the past year. Choose one that best captures you; either who you are, or who you strive to be. Find the shot of you that is worth a thousand words. Share the image, who shot it, where, and what it best reveals about you.
Well. I think this year there were maybe...five images taken of me. I spend my time behind the lens, not in front of it, and that's just fine by me. My dad did take this shot in Mexico at a restaurant called Pancho's.
I like this photo. I'm relaxed, which is a very rare occurrence. This was...our second day in Mazatlan? Sunburned, happy, footsore, drinking a big Mai Tai, not thinking about work or the future or even the snowstorm that is attacking Tahoe at the second this was taken. Just existing. Enjoying some aguachiles and the sunset while a little marionette vendor man keeps wandering over on the beach and trying to sell me stuff. Thinking maybe about the gecko that's taken up residence in my bathroom in the villa or how badly I want to find an ironwood box to buy (which, by the way, I successfully did by the end of the week. Tortuga!). This is me when I'm not a tightly-wound ball of stress. I like it. I need to find this person and bring her back with me next time.
