I like being tall, "Ooops, word censored!"ody can ignore you when you're 6 foot 1". Particularly useful in shops or pubs ;)

 

I like the colour of my eyes.

 

I like how shiny my hair can look when I bother with conditioner ;)

 

When I look in the mirror I am usually quite happy with what I see but I hate being photographed!!! I wrote a poem about that feeling once, thought I'd share it. Not looking for feedback or comments or trying to show off, just wanted to share it really.

 

I Feel Pretty

 

I like the face

that looks back at me

we are allies

my reflection and me

but when I see myself

in transparency

I guess I see what others see

and I don't like the imagery

so we made a pact

my reflection and me

to be content in our own

reverie

I use to hate having my picture taken, until I started loving taking pictures!!! I then decided I'd take some good pictures of myself, bought a tripod, and one day when I was all alone at home took pics of myself with DD4 when she was still a baby... the result was so good, people asked me if the pics were taken at Venture, which is the most expensive studio for miles around...

 

Most people can look great on pictures, but stressing in front of a camera is very common... My mum always look at the camera with the expression of a rabbit frozen in the headlights of a car!! So once when I went to visit I sat with my camera, sat her down in front of me and just chatted and joked for ages while taking pictures, until she relaxed, and got some lovely shots of her...

Thank you :D I'm glad it struck a chord, poems that don't do that have failed (IMHO).

 

My uncle offered to video my wedding as his gift to us, I nearly choked! :shock: I was nervous enough having the photos done, never mind a video! :lol:
