Cobalt glimmer - a photo on Flickriver

Cobalt glimmer

             🔷 21/31

I was heading back inside after shooting in the forest and saw this glimmer of light peeking through the trees. I thought hey, let’s try one more shot (not expecting anything fancy). So I tied my hair back using a red ribbon and hoped for the best. When I saw this shot appear on my viewfinder it was like a wave of nostalgia hit me all at once. It took me right back to my early self portraiture days... right when I received my 50mm f/1.8 lens and saw bokeh properly for the first time with me in the frame.

Honestly, there was nothing more inspiring and exciting than those early days venturing off into this same forest without any clear idea ... just documenting whatever I was feeling or what I was going through during those oh so memorable teenage years 😂 My @flickr peeps will understand 💙💕

If you know me, I love a good concept... a photo that tells a story. Whilst this photo is simple and there aren’t a bunch of fancy props or costumes... there still really is a story 💙
