Let me be clear: I am no photographer. I don't even own a camera besides my iPotato (which actually takes decent pictures). I just take pictures as best as I see fit, with no real technique involved.

I seem to be best at nature/wide landscape pictures, such as this one I took two days ago in CO.

Anyways, I thought of something that might make an interesting/thought-provoking photo. I think it came to me while washing my face and looking at the mirror. The way the bathroom's light was oriented threw a shadow over just my eyes and forehead, while illuminating everything else.

I would have images of several people with various facial expressions (happy, irritated, sad, etc.), but their eyes would never be visible. It would serve to symbolize that you can never truly know how somebody feels regardless of how they show it, or that the "eyes are the window to the soul".

Maybe this is just my tired, ill brain rambling. Oh well.

Thanks man! I was able to snap it out the passenger window at speed. I wasn't driving, of course.

Ha, sometimes those are some of the better ones. The ones we kinda just take at random and not set up. How was Colorado? I went to Montana a couple summers ago and loved it. I bet Colorado is largely the same.

It was on the way from Denver to Snowmass, so maybe?

Still here. Snow's not that great in Snowmass... And I've seen at least five pot stores so far. Oh, Colorado.

Haha, pot stores, definitely not things you see legally here in NY. Oh and it's probably not 10 degrees like it is here either. Along with the 4 feet we have.

I think that might be a pretty cool concept
