Hi everyone. I’m Cris, and I am writing from Brazil. I feel kinda silly starting “hello, my name is”, it’s so tird grade, but i figured this is a pattern too: when people meet, they usually exchange names and general information. So, my name is Cris! You might notice the spelling, without the H in the middle, that’s how it’s done over here.
I also go by the name Overcomeyourfear, and after a few unsuccessful trials to send my pictures to appear here, I signed up to be a contributor, and Kath said Ok, let’s try, and I thought that writing is even a better way to participate: I get to write, as well as choose pictures! I’m really excited about being a part of this lovely idea of a community of points of view.
That’s way I chose the pictures bellow to start this Friday #3. They show a personal view of the theme. Like the one of the toes, you can tell there’s a relation between the toes, they are alike but unique in the same time.
Or the one with the nice tiles in a random bathroom. I just loved to go to old people’s houses (usually grandparent’s friends or neighboors) to look up their bathroom and kitchen tiles. The pattern in the tiles can say a lot about when the house was built, and what kind of project of life they might had in mind.
I just loved the one with the tortoiseshell cat. At first it seemed someone’s hair, but then I realized it would be too hard to dye a person’s hair like that, which makes the patterns in nature so interesting: they don’t follow any reason or pattern at all, just a chaotic and random choice, and yet it can be very close to perfection, in its chaotic beauty.
The last one, with the dotted shirt, just called my attention because of the angle of the picture (and, also, because I would buy a shirt like that if in a store, I’m just dot-crazy!), I figured it wasn’t an easy picture, but it looks great.
Until next Friday #3!
