"All Strung up"

A less innocent self portrait. lol. I kind of wanted to reach into my feelings. I am constantly striving to do my best and reach out desperately for my aspiration, but sometimes I am my own worst obstacle. I constantly question if I am good enough, if I will ever really make it. I guess we've all been there.Also, I'm sorry for the recent obsession with self p's guys, i'm just really trying to get better at them. I really feel i'm not a photogenic person, so thought i could have a go taming the beast.Anyway, yeah, another really fun shoot. I have the house to myself, (thank god) so I secretly nicked my dad's duck tape. He would actually string me up himself if he found out.

This photograph was made using 3 layers, and two block shapes for the border. I used photoshop elements to blend the layers together. I chose to magnetically crop around my body and add an old, water stained texture to my bedroom wallpaper to make picture look more gory. I also flipped the photo upside down to create a more surreal, interesting feel.
