Hello, I'm Anne, I joined a little while back but have only just got round to adding some photos to my portfolio. Hopefully this is just the start! I'm really looking forward to hearing folks' comments on my images, anything that you think will improe them will be welcome.

365 Day 105 - Self portrait
16 Apr 2014 6:46PM Views : 360 Unique : 308Back to my work on People and Place for this one or to be precise, an exercise in one of the recommended texts for the course, Train your Gaze by Roswell Angier. Chapter 2 of this book is called 'Self portrait/no face' in which the author discusses issues of identity but without being able to see the main means by which we are all identified, i.e. our faces. I didn't particularly set out to take this photograph but noticed this long distorted shadow when I was walking with the sun behind me. Not very flattering but hey, it could have been worse if I had chosen to photograph my feet!
