My Back.

So perhaps not the most creative title...
But it is what it is I suppose
I took this picture this afternoon and I must say that galavanting upon a hill topless is quite exhilarating. I recommend it.
Upon returning home and reviewing my pictures, I realised how unfamiliar my own back is to me.
There are no delicate ribs or pretty ridges of the spine; my back is sturdier than I thought it would be.
I observed an unfamiliar spine, and back muscles which I didn't know I possessed. I noticed that my skin tone isn't totally even, there are patches of lighter and darker skin.
I never expected this personal reaction to my own back. How foreign it is to me, despite it having supported me for two decades.
My back, me. Though most of my pictures feature me, I feel like I am a character in them, there as a tool for the picture. This one feels like a self portrait. Strange, strange!
