I don't remember the original inspiration, just that it took a lot of walking to find the right combo of flower and Sun angle to pull it off.

@jerzone how is that not your profile pic yet?! 😂
@tsadiq oh, good idea ":^)
@jerzone frankly, it works even better than i thought it would 👌

@jerzone That's fantastic!

Inspiration was possibly Antoinne?

I don't think it was that one, but that is excellent.

@jerzone @antoinnesterk Oooh, pleased at the possibility of there being more, I like them very much!
@eclectech @antoinnesterk
I took mine in 2024 after a mt bike accident left me with no other option but to walk all of the time. ":^)
@jerzone @antoinnesterk Ooof. Hope that is fully recovered now. Feels like quite a brutal way to end up with an excellent self portrait.
@jerzone @eclectech I try do one like that each year, but I will not claim I invented this one. Many people did it before and hopefully many will follow 👍
@antoinnesterk @jerzone I need a nice hashtag to follow to see them all. I am *definitely* going to be on the lookout for a suitable photo opp during my walks this spring and summer.
@eclectech @antoinnesterk @jerzone
Augenblumen sounds kind of nice to me, but I’m sure you’ll find a good one.
@sollat @antoinnesterk @jerzone Oh I like augenblumen - if I manage to take one I will use that 🌸 🌸
@eclectech @jerzone Well, the classic one is "Canyon de Chelley" by Lee Friedlander, right?
@Daniel_Pagenstecher @jerzone That's great, but the flowers for eyes are missing! 🌸 🌸
@jerzone Hard Pan Labyrinth's Hand Man vibes here. 😁
Love it.

@jerzone The one I remember is this one that might be reddit OC? idk https://redd.it/v22ej3

Edit: it seems to be plausibly credited to Lasse Nilsson: https://lfi-online.de/en/gallery/Lasse-Nilsson/Selfie-1852227.html

@MHLoppy That's the one! I wasn't able to replicate that pose, the closest I got was this but the eyes were all wrong.

@eclectech @antoinnesterk

@jerzone nice!..☺☺☺☺☺
@jerzone very cool and creative
@jerzone All that’s missing is a little dew to give you heiligenschein. 😜
@jerzone
Yes, I've seen a similar image recently. I think your photo has better "eye" spacing.
@jerzone worth the effort, that is pretty cool
@jerzone
Nickname Black Eyed Susan ?
Or perhaps Rudy Beckia 😉
@jerzone hahahahahahaha thanks for this
@jerzone Massive Attack album cover vibes

@jerzone

i'd read the horror novel that was on the cover of!!!! 🤣

@jerzone This looks cool cover page for the series "From"
@jerzone I'm not sure what I admire most, the pic or the fact that you looked for the configuration you wanted rather than ripping something out and placing it where you wanted it for the sake of a picture. I salute you.

@jerzone Oh, Jer. Your photo is so nice!

@OhMrBill Thanks, Dandelion!
@jerzone
I am going to try this. This should become a thing.
@shansterable Tag me when you post one.

@jerzone
Oh lord. I can only promise to try.

By the time I manage to achieve the feat, I may not remember who to tag LOL.

We will be relying on a Post-It note.

@shansterable You'll be out and about when a pair of flowers will just speak to you and it will all come rushing back.

Or a post-it.

@jerzone

Giving me folk horror thoughts

@jerzone serious Annihilation vibes :)
