How do others see us? We are busy enjoying life. Focused on one thing. But what is going on around us?
What is life from another’s point of view? Not everyone sees the world the way we do. You may photograph a stunning view. Behind you, all I espy is your rear! I’m not saying that it’s not a work of art. Or that my perspective is especially alien. (I wonder how Aliens perceive our antics?)
Empathy is not just wearing another man’s shoes. A woman’s shoe is far less comfortable! We cannot know how someone else feels.
very cool -I like your point of view (ha!)

So true that we do not know how another person feels. But if we have known someone for long enough I think at times we have some idea of what they are feeling.
It’s good to reflect on how the world sees us. 🙂

As long as they’re not looking when I take a photo. I get into all sorts of weird poses. 🙂 I hope I have some idea of how those close to me feel. But we each have our own experiences and filters inside our head. Sometimes I have a feeling that someone needs me even when they are far away. I wonder if that happens to everyone.

My Mum used to get ‘feelings’ when something was up with us. I really think there is mental telepathy. Sometimes I get my phone out of my bag for no reason and then my brother rings me. He travels with his work.

Beautiful. Love the photograph of being photographed. I guess I don’t worry how I’m viewed when I’m photographing something/someone. I’m in the moment, doing what I love, and nothing else around me matters. When I’m getting my zen on, then I’m one with everything anyway. 🙂
Great post.

Thanks Penny,
I feel the same way. I love how you describe it. I go into the same kind of excited photography trance. It’s wonderful.

I think about how an outsider would interpret the collection of photos I have of my family. I take most of them, so I make a rare appearance compared to the rest of us. I’m more self-conscious, too, so I delete a fair share of the ones I do make it into. I like the photo and your piece.
