Self-portrait:
a) Connection with the nature.
I used fast shatter speed when making this picture of myself from the back. In this way, my figure transmits the stillness of the viewer, who's looking on beautiful flowers and is almost absorbed by them.
b) Savouring a drink.
In order to portray the drinking motion, I used slow shutter speed on my phone's camera. I placed it in front of myself while tasting wine at one of Old Ports' restaurants.
Here comes the theme of coronavirus that affected most of us in 2020. Wearing a mask became a routine, so we put it on wherever we're going. I tried slow shutter speed techniques to express the mood of anxiety and stress, perhaps panic. I thought it would represent the emotions that virus caused in all of us.
d) Glass painting.
I took a static picture of my reflection in the painted window. It was taken near Charlevoix metro, the window making part of an old building. In result, my figure is being all covered by flowers' pattern. There is also much contrast between lights and shadows between upper and lower parts of the picture. My silhouette is much darker than all of the others elements of the photo, which makes it more prominent.
