August theme announcement - Patterns

Self portrait with pattern - i really think that you can have some fun with theme idea. While on the surface it might seem quite simple - Pattern has a lot of meaning to a persons life. Family history, personal history and cultural history all can be mined to work within this theme.

I want people to really try to be personal with this - use patterns to accentuate your self, to bring added meaning to the image, to tell a story or point to your history.

Some examples - check out the links for the some cool self portraits with pattern.

The photo above is of one small section of the pool, which I can only guess was used for a game of under-water-Twister (any other ideas?). I couldn’t resist snapping my self in the lovely pattern for this month’s Self Portrait Challenge. [...]
