8/52: The Lovers, a photo by m_bui on Flickr.

ceci n'est pas une photographie
a long, long time ago i came across this photo, which introduced me to surrealism painting and the world of magritte. my ten year old self has been fascinated by such "strange" photos ever since. when i shot my first 365 in 2010, i attempted this photo; but it never quite came out the way i liked.
thought it'd give it a try again. turns out the problem was that i tried to replicate the exact magritte painting. it wasn't stylistically "me" for a photo. so i tried a few other things: sitting, walking, lying. and eventually simplicity won out. anyways, this is me, paying tribute to one of my favorite paintings.
