How I never see myself ...





This is the way I never see myself, except on photographs that show me how the ones taking pictures have seen me in a given moment. Only when looking at photographs of me do I have a closer look at myself, it seems to me, for hardly ever I take the time in front of a mirror to contemplate what I have before my eyes.

A strange phenomenon, come to think of it, that aptly illustrates that we cannot see ourselves how others see us. So which view of me is the right one, mine or theirs? Both, of course.

These pics were taken by Blazenka Kostolna on 12 August 2022 in Adliswil.
