Can you see the truth?

"What do you see? You people gazing at me?" These are the lyrics going round and round in my head. They were sung (I just found out from a film buff) in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang by Truly Scrumptious. ...What a name! But this (oh so random) song is going through my head because I was thinking about what we see when we see. How much do we "pre-see"? Prejudge? Call it what you like.

The other day I was chatting to some people. Chit chat. Chit chat. Huh?

I had that moment when you almost start gazing, staring, seeing something different in something that frankly shouldn't be new to you. A thing. An aura. An energy. Or something just plain weird! Sometimes, we just see nothing at all. I mean, how many times do we really re-see?

I've already shown this image to a couple of people. Some have interestingly given me an opinion that, at one point, had me bent double laughing. Well, these are the first images of the second set of my Alter-Ego project. Look at the image and make up your own mind of what you see. Maybe at the end of the set, you'll have to go back to the beginning and see again.


What do you see?

For all those starting the week on a day off, enjoy! I'm jealous!

And we're back! (With an Alter-Ego...)

Do you think it's too late to say happy new year? Ok, maybe a little. To all those reading this blog, I apologise for my absence but I promise I've been hard at work on photography and some ground work around the business.

Getting straight in, I wanted my first post this year to be the start of my second project. This is another idea I've had floating in my mind for a while, slowly taking shape.

Alter-Ego

The idea is to take normal situations that we all know and understand and see what they could be when looked at through the looking glass to peer into an alternate fantasy reality. Some realities obviously more fantastical than the others!

In the first image we take a look into the office world. I don't want to talk too much in this blog post. Just click on the image below to see the full versions to see one of the places I've been spending my energy, and I'll see you back here soon for more visual goodies. :-)
