Photography: Hopes and Dreams - A competition by @careassaktart 📷
I got a comment from @careassaktart. Pretty good comment and he introduced his self-portrait competition he just started. He asked me if I would love to join his competition. I promised him that I would look into it, and here is my post finally to join his competition.

His contest is at the moment in week #3. The weeks before didn’t have that many attendants so I hope some of my followers would join his contest because it is always nice to see the face behind the nicknames of everyone and there is nothing wrong with some competition. So I managed to find some energy somewhere and create this post with the picture I used before. But I was allowed to use it.
Be creative & make self-portraits not in that common way as the trendy "selfies" but in a high quality way partly describing yourself & your way of life. Every each of us has many different roles to play in life: worker, sportsman, soldier, writer, driver, lover, husband, father, wife, mother, artist, model, waitress, lawyer, dancer, actress, scientist, doctor, singer, musician, politician, manager, nurse, porn star, prostitute, gigolo, pimp... or some kind of an imaginary character - somebody who you would like to be... There is plenty of inspiration for the theme!

I always try to create some selfies during my activites. Even if Im running alone I would try to create some material from myself. Bcause I'd love to look back through my pictures and videos every now and then and what is the fun of that if you're missing yourself in your collection? But as people might remember I also created some movies for the RB400 challenge and now I'm not that healthy at the moment it is a great motivator to keep on going and stay positive.

The original idea from this selfie was actually discovering new possibilities from my old beloved D700 camera while scrolling through the menu of it. I found out about the multi exposure option. So started to explore this unknown functionallity. Found out you can select older images or images you just load on your memory card. So that is what I did while I shot a new portrait. So without Photoshop you can create some interesting pictures that do look Photoshopped but it is actually done in camera.

Woohoo thank you very much!🎉
Sorry I'm not replying that much had a bad week with some fainting and hospital visits...
How's life there?
The spring is coming fast now. A lot of work needs to be done in the garden but elsewhere too! My sister gave a birth to a daughter so I became an uncle 2 days ago!
What's happening with your health state?
Posted using Partiko Android
Congratulations at becoming an (proud) uncle! Both in good health I hope?☺️
Spring is indeed around the corner! Can’t wait till it arrives. What kind of work needs to be done in your garden?
My health state ain’t that good at the moment. Not sure what is causing the trouble. First passing out happened at the beginning of February. Updating my blog with updates about that... before people might think I abandon the playform😈

Yes, my sister & her daughter are all fine now! Thanks!
In the garden I need to cut some tall grass & the bushes growing wild & to plant some more vegetables. Maybe dig a bit too & definitely mulching!
Sorry to hear about your bad state. I'll try to follow your blog posts about it but as I have a lot of work, I can't promise. But if I can help by sending you some medicinal plants, let me know!

Good to hear that your sister and her daughter are all fine!
How is the gardenwork going? Hopefully you got some helping hands available? Is it a big garden?
The health issue will be solved, can't be that they can't find what it is causing so just waiting for the day we get a breakthrough after running dozens of tests😄
Thanks for the offer about the medicinal plants! What plants are those? And about finding the time to read my blogs don't worry just take a peak every now and then and you'll be perfectly fine not that often posting, same as replying😉
Well, in my area, between the Adriatic sea & the mountain Učka, we have a lot of medicinal plants growing wildly & I also have some growing in my garden, like mint, sage, rosemary, thym & many more! Maybe it's better you tell me which one do you need...
