I have decided to accept Donna's challenge of a self-portrait a month (actually she suggested one per week but 52 pictures of me is too many - 12 is pushing it). Through this picture I am almost able to see someone I am becoming. I think I like who she is.
We do not believe in ourselves until someone reveals that deep inside us is valuable, worth listening to, worthy of our trust, sacred to our touch. Once we believe in ourselves we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that reveals the human spirit.

Really neat shot -- contrasting the darker, still image of you with the light and motion of the other elements.
You look reflective :-).
Love the picture and the quote. The palm trees and sky in your reflection are so pretty. I can tell you're concentrating on getting that picture.
Forgot to mention - have you ever seen the "daily dose of imagery" website? I check in a couple times a week and I think you'd like it. Your photos remind me of some of his shots. Here's the addy:

Thanks Sandy! I just bookmarked it. :-)
This is cool, Nikki! Especially the way you conveniently placed yourself next to that baseball player. ;-)
I'm really enjoying both your photos and the accompanying quotes.
I've been noticing reflections more and more...there's bound to be a message there...
I like this self-portrait and your thoughts.
I love who she it! What a wonderful affirmation to read to yourself by ee. The photo is awesome with the basball figure in it... something about casting yourself into the future or soemthing.
This is wonderful self portrait. I can see you and you becoming in it. Very cool.
It's great to hear/see the positive tone in this photograph and in your voice. Sweet.
I love the cars in the background. You are "going places" Nikki!
