Passions and Beliefs
With my image I am trying to show that I am a very passionate person and that I have firm beliefs. My necklace represents my strong faith in the Lord. Also, it reminds me of my wonderful parents, because they gave it to me. The flowery background is the cover of my journal. I write in it every night before I go to bed and it holds all of my emotions and feelings. The glittery blue overlay is a DIY that I made. I love doing DIYs and it really shows off my creative side. My grips in the lower right corner represent my strength and my passion for gymnastics. I used PhotoShop to make my journal cover the background to show how my journal can really provide that support and be my backbone on a hard day. All in all, my selfie shows that I am passionate, a believer, and I am very in touch with my emotions.

Spring Fever
I definitely find my double exposure selfie more pleasing to look at than my original 5 layer selfie. The selection of my face on my 5 layer selfie is very bumpy, but, over time I improved an the selection of my face on the double exposure is much smoother. In both selfies, my hair is parted in the same way and I have the same smile, but my head is positioned at a weird angle in the 5 layer selfie. Also, in my double exposure, I did a better job of blending my layers together, whereas some layers didn't necessarily "fit" in my 5 layer selfie. All in all, I like my double exposure better than my 5 layer selfie and I think that by comparing and contrasting the two images you can really see my growth over the trimester.
