feliscorvus: Me at around age 5-6 near the woodpile behind one of our old houses in CT. This is a good example of the kinds of pictures my mom used to go to great trouble to “stage”, to the point of sometimes physically moving my arms into certain positions. I actually find it a bit creepy to look at now. OMFG. There is that exact picture for me too. Me in a dress holding a basket, maybe even in front of a woodpile. Just as creepy. And I think I threw it out ages ago because I hated looking at the series of creepy photos like that. WTF. Now I wonder if I should have kept it just to document that aspect of my life. But I hated those photos so I don’t think I kept any. (My mom was big on posed photos for awhile.)
