Hard at work? Hardly working?

My confession

I have a confession to make. And I aint gonna like it (ahh…that sounded so lovely American, like in the movies and cheesy rap songs!). My confession: I’m already 3 weeks behind in posting my 52-week project. I know, I know, it’s a disgrace. But somehow life doesn’t seem to play along with my ideas all the time. No worries, I will catch up. Eventually. I can’t promise the exact time and date, but I will find my photos and I will spread the love. Or the self-portraits. Whichever comes first.

So, meanwhile I’ve been having a look through all my old photos and getting extremely nostalgic about London and all the great photo opportunities I had there. But, no use crying over what was. It’s time to look forward and get into the things I can do here. Like my self-portraits. I wish I had ideas though…lately I’ve been too blank. Wiped clean of ideas. The photographic alternative to writer’s block.

I did however redo my blog design (which I’m quite happy about!). I was getting kinda fed up with the old design, so this is a step into a new era of blogging. At least for me. I also found time to work on an entry for Calvin’s New York Contest, which was alot of fun. I’m quite excited to see some of the other entries (if he posts them).

My newest toy is my new computer. I finally got the much needed upgrade from my really slow PC with a crap graphics card. Now that I’ve upgraded to a quad core processor and 4GB RAM with an awesome graphics card, it’s been a dream working on my stuff. Things load faster, process better and browsing through my photos doesn’t take all day. This will hopefully also increase my productivity and thus my output…so here’s hoping I can show you new photos soon. Above I’ve included some older ones to tide you over until I’ve caught up – if the Windows 7 Bubbles screensaver doesn’t distract me too much! :)

See what I mean?

Week 21: Mosaic

For this week’s photo I wanted to create a mosaic. I like the idea of cutting up a self-portrait into many pieces and rearranging the pieces into a colourful mosaic. There’s no real deeper meaning in this week’s topic, it was just for fun. And I did enjoy doing it.

So, this week no long explanation, just a cut-up fun picture. Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Thanks for reading and I look forward to sharing some more photos with you in the next week. Cheerio!
