i don't know what moves me more...the note or the photo...
the photo is interesting. it appears to be simple in technique - actually, after seeing this, i have several ideas - thanks! however, it is very effective...original vs. inversed...color vs. black and white...the double vision created by the two images together...this is an excellent portrayal of your note.
so glad to finally see something from you! i'm anxious to see what you have to offer!!

your note is a a wonderful counterpart to your photo. I'm brand new here too, but welcome! Isn't "sisterhood" great? I'm very close to my daughter and four sisters . . . unfortunately, my mother is deceased, but "us girls" -- sisters, daughters, nieces, friends even, etc. are all part of the "sisterhood." It's great bein' a girl . . . P.S. I'm familiar with bi-polarism. it can be so lonely love, ck So, how'd ya' make the photo?

Welcome to TL Linda and you have started with a great first image. A lot of imagination used in this picture and it shows. Great composition, exposure and point of view. Well done.

A title perfect for this picture, two personalities in one creation, the colour one and the "other" B/W-part, excellent done, Linda and of course, welcome with us ! !

I knew someone that was schizophrenic and bi-polar indivdual and its no laughing matter and this image reflects that well thought out and a great note is dead on.

amazing work Linda! wow.. there are really some mighty strong photographic genes in your family! ihih :-) so glad that you've joined your mum and sister here among us crazy bunch of TL'ers and especially if your first post is any indication of what's to come!

this is really fantastic.. emotionally very powerful and visually so striking and beautiful.. yeah.. some days we really aren't feeling ourselves.. (scary thing is realizing that most days i have all those symptoms barring the voices! :P) i particularly love the defination of your eyes here.. adds beautifully to that haunting sense of being rather dazed and confused and locked inside yourself..

fantastic work Linda and keep'em coming! ^_^

Great stepping in with this photo! Nice portrait and note, creativity runs in the family!

I like the colour against BW contrast here, as if one personality is coming loose from the other in a ghostly way.

Btw, the beauty of your mother and sister shines in your face too Linda! Beautiful blue eyes...!

Do you know what Linda means in Portuguese? It means "Pretty" or "Beautiful"... your mom couldn't had choosen a better name for you.
