This is a different definition of "sepia", hehe. (Number four instead of three.)
se·pi·a (s?'p?-?)
n.
1. A dark brown ink or pigment originally prepared from the secretion of the cuttlefish.
2. A drawing or picture done in this pigment.
3. A photograph in a brown tint.
4. A dark grayish yellow brown to dark or moderate olive brown.
By the way, it is funny, this happens sometimes: originally when viewing the series of shots I took of this subject, I thought I had failed with it. But looking over them now, I really like this one.
"Failed with it", hunh?

Being one's first and main critic can really help becoming good at what you do.
Provided you're not too successful at criticism! ;-)
(Otherwise, the best thing you can do is become a critic...)
Thanks.
ReplyDeleteYes, I have long felt that it is self-destructive to be highly critical, even if you're "right".
And I guess one should remember this includes the times when one is critical of oneself.
