Ok...I'll admit these are not some of my favorite pictures. It's not
because I don't like my outfit and it's not because they were taken at
night. It's the fact that a flash was used because we were in the
darkest part of the city, void of all street lights. Hear me out, it's
not that it was dark but it's the use of a flash.
Flash and I don't get
along and we have been at odds since our first encounter. Allow me to
explain... standing their posing for a picture with friends, the flash
goes off and the intense light causes me to blink, it's not something
that I do as a conscious reaction, it's an involuntary response like
breathing. So, while everyone is admiring the great picture they have
all taken together to mark a memory of an experience we all shared in a
moment in time, I'm the one who says, "Delete it, delete it now!" Why?
Well I'm the only one in the group who looks intoxicated!
Me being the
super hero that I am have just exposed to the world my one
weakness...the flash. Just like superman and kryptonite I had to find a
way to combat my weakness. Through months of research and testing I have discovered the one thing that can protect me...sunglasses! I can take all the pictures I want with a flash without the fear of my weakness being shown. But, then it occurred to me, I'm not the only one with suffering from this ailment. Karl Lagerfeld (if he ever took a picture without sunglasses I probably wouldn't recognize him) and the entire front row of fashion week.
I wear sunglasses not only for style, but also because I too bleed if you prick me.
