WIC: Week 39 "Veracious Vanity"

veracious- truthful

vanity- pride in one's looks, ability, etc

"How can anybody learn anything from an artwork when the piece of art only reflects the vanity of the artist and not reality?" -Lou Reed

Lynn H suggested a little return to what at one time was a weekly on-going challenge... SP Friday. I decided to twist that into something with a little hook in the name and came up with "Veracious Vanity". No one is going to claim you are vain for joining in the mix this week but do give us a good glimpse of YOU in YOUR ELEMENT (what is really you). Try to show some of the true you to kick off the Weekly Informal Challenge for 2011.

A few simple rules:

1. Themes are posted on Fridays to give you the weekend to come up with a FRESH shot for the challenge to post through Monday.

2. This is about interaction, learning, being challenged and having fun so... HAVE FUN!

3. The themes are specific but interpretations are broad. Stay on theme but PLEASE feel free to think outside the box.

4. Look at others' submissions, comment as moved to do so and offer supportive and constructive feedback. Please don't just post for exposure. Look and at least comment on some.

5. Did we already mention: HAVE FUN!!!

Unfortunately, I won't be participating this week. Been pretty sick with an upper respiratory infection and don't think I could get a decent SP of myself if I tried. Maybe next week! Y'all have fun!

Sorry - it was a busy weekend and the challenge completely slipped my mind...
I have a SP I took last Thursday - but not on Friday to Sunday
I'll try and take one today!!! (Monday)

I hope this photo wasn't taken too late - taken on Monday Jan 10th, when the grandchildren, who'd been away on summer holidays since Christmas, came over for lunch.

This is the REAL ME - surrounded by 3 of my 9 grandchildren AND also with my camera in my hand.
