Self Portrait Series - Fingers

Here is the next photo for my self portrait series.  It is a finger.  Or fingers.  We shall see if I decide to do one photo per finger.  If so, then this is the photo for my left middle finger.  Remember that.



G Chord
One of the things my fingers find themselves doing frequently is grasping guitar necks, positioning themselves on frets, and plucking or strumming the strings.

Self Portrait Series

I decided to try to continue one of the series I started the other day.  The series is a grouping of photos of different parts of my body with something significant attached to that part, be it conceptual or physical.  Today's is based off of my constant urges to be moving.  Whether it is hiking, biking, running, or traveling to a different country, I'm not one to ever really stop moving.  If I stop moving physically, my mind picks up where my feet left off and keeps on going.


Idle Will Kill
I tried to capture the image in a way that exemplifies the idea of motion or "going."  I toyed with using a slow shutter speed to actually get good blur, but I feel this image resulted in a better representation of something starting in one place and ending in another.
