Portrait (Mondays Ony) Announcement:Portrait Mondays and Guidelines.

5 Upvotes

We would like to announce that moving forward, Mondays will be the designated day to post self portrait or portrait photography.

Guidelines:

1.The title of your post can only contain one word “Portrait”. If your title contains more than the designated word, it will be removed.

2.It must be a portrait and not a selfie. Any photo submitted deemed as a selfie will be removed. Repeated offenses will result in a ban.

3.One submission per account allowed each Monday. Additional submissions will be removed.

4.All submissions must be SFW.

5.Remember:No photoshop, No AI, No selling, No links and original content only.

The self-portrait and the selfie are two separate, though at times overlapping, efforts at establishing and embellishing a definition of one’s self. Efforts only superficially differentiate the two. What has greater weight is the selfie’s inherently replaceable and even disposable quality. If after taking a picture of oneself the results are unsatisfactory, it is easily forgotten and replaced by a new picture. The self-portrait, whether it is a carefully composed study or created in haste, often contains more decisions than could be easily erased. Self-portraits are created to be read as art.

The bug is supposedly a Rosemary Beetle, they like lavender. I wanted to show my kids but I thought the pic turned out great just from my phone!
