self-portraits

I was not very creative when I had an idea I wanted to do. The pictures got better when I did not know what to do and just improvised. I don't really know what I want to say but I think a part of what I want to say and show is that I am kind of crazy, even though people think I am shy.

This is my host mom, Jeannine. I took these pictures at home in front of the TV and in the dinner room. I choose to take photos while she was doing something else because she didn't really want me to take pictures of her. I also tried to annoy her because then I get more emotional from her.

beauty

How would you define Beauty in photography?
What are the characteristics of photographic beauty?
I think that beauty in photography is when the photo have a story behind it and/or when it have color that fits the photo. because I think that some photos looks better in sepia or in black&white and others in brighter colors.


Can something "ugly" be photographed and be considered beautiful? Why? How? Examples?
It depends. I personally do not think that a spider would look beautiful in any way. There can be some cool pictures, but with the spider in it, it can not be beautiful. I chose a picture of a peacock even if it's not ugly in real life but because it looks better when you makes it colors brighter!
