Description For the 100 Theme Challenge.

When I was very small I was playing in the bathroom and came across some condoms. I didn't know what they were exactly, but they looked like balloons to me, so I started filling them up with water. Anyhow, my mom came in (though I mentioned this to her the other day and she says she can't remember--- so it could have been my grandmother), and she laughed very hard at me and questioned what I was doing. I told her I was filling up water-balloons and then whoever it was (mom or gram) they left me to continue playing. Needless to say when I was in health class (around 12-13) I got a big shock to find out what I had been playing with those many years ago.

Here is my representation of Innocence based on my story and now without condoms since I was too immature and embarrassed to buy any.

Originality

Impact


Once again, you've amazed me with you're camera technique and ability to capture a simple moment in life with ease. The balloons in the background have a great impact on creating an innocent look, doubled over by your chosen outfit.
Besides the work itself, I love when you personally incorporate you into the artwork. You're a very aesthetically pleasing young woman, and your sleek, slender shape, wearing a "country" looking, simple top puts the icing on the cake for this piece. The contrast works really well, and the highlights on your skin really make the photo pop. Gosh- I love this piece. :3

Also, hilarious story. It reminds me of this vid I saw on [link] a while back, titled Fun with Condoms.
Here is the link if you want to see.

Wonderful, fun image. I really like the composition, and the placement of the balloons compliments your position in the image. I like the way you chose to pose yourself and look upward toward one specific balloon. It gives the image a point of interest and a connection to the story. I really like the top you chose for this image. It's light, it's fun and it's perfect for the theme that goes with the image. Very, very nicely done!

I tried to keep it youthful, and innocent looking. I actually went through a lot of different tops until I finally settled on this one. I also had a very difficult time with those darn balloons! Urhg... They kept falling off because tape doesn't stick well to a flat surface (my wall) and the balloons curved surface. I'm delighted that you like it. Thanks for the kind comment.

It's you posing, right? OMG!!! I can sooooooooooooo relate! I did the exact same thing! Except that I found it on the ground at school with my friends and filled it up with water in the bathroom sink and started pouring it near older kids.

Back in the good old days when there was cooties everything was so simple
Little Brittany playing with balloons, great depiction of innocence and a great reenactment of your past

that's such a funny story lol I think if I came into the bathroom to see my young daughter filling condoms with water, I'd be questionable too xDD

But I love the balloons in this picture^^ and nice choice of the top. It has that youthful feel.
