Scars
We all carry them - hidden away.
comments (26)
Welcome back Jose - I often wondered where you were. This is a powerfully symbolic image. We all carry scars, even if they seem to heal on the outside. I hope yours are not too deep. Photography can help - I know this.
Ingrid
pixelpixie: Thanks Ingrid, your words are very much appreciated.
You're back. Ooophhhhh. We love you with or without scars, dear. Scars on the body, those are the easy ones. Scars on the soul heal oh-so much longer.

pixelpixie: You are so kind Viktor.
Hello again- we here have the balm for you, and I reckon getting the Mamiya out on some tricky assignment will soothe too.
pixelpixie: Yes, I need to get shooting again. The urge coming back again.
Quite a scarey image Jose, especially in the light of recent events in Austria with the family that were kept locked away for twenty odd years. I wonder what scars they will bear for ever?
pixelpixie: I was dumbstruck when I read about that. Makes my situation seem like nothing at all.
Goodness me that's a strong image Jose. Hang in there. Welcome back, looking forward to seeing more of your work.
pixelpixie: Thanks Alistair. It certainly got a lot of hits but perhaps wasn't what a lot of viewers thought it was!
Very strong image, and harsh lighting what did yo uuse Jose, and of course welcome back.
pixelpixie: Thank-you Nigel. It was a polaroid to test the lighting for series of ideas I was trying out a while back. The 'scars' were made pulling the back off. It was just appropriate for the time I'm going through lately.
Very powerful. I like the harsh lighting ... it adds to the power of the image.
pixelpixie: Thanks Helen, thanks for visiting.
I agree with Ingrid, Jose welcome back
pixelpixie: Hi Tracy, thank-you, you're very kind.
Lovely to see you back again Jose. I hope the scars heal and the sun shines in your pictures
pixelpixie: Thanks Bill. Time is all it needs - lots of time and maybe things might take an unexpected turn and the sun will really shine then for me. Time will tell.
great to see you again. An image with a message. mal
pixelpixie: Thanks Mal. I have to smile when I see this - it's a polaroid and the 'scars' came about when I pulled the back off.
Powerful image Jose.
pixelpixie: Thanks Chris.
oh thats so clever Jose, superb image for sure fella
pixelpixie: Thank-you Tim. Do you think I'm a bloke?
Good to have you back,this looks painful,but time is a great healer.
pixelpixie: Felt good to post something at long last. Time will do it.
Welcome back, Jose. Sudocrem & a large bourbon should sort this little lot out...
pixelpixie: Thanks Dave. Mmmmm sudocrem...
Welcome back indeed, Jose-Ann. I've missed you. Have you ever noticed that some scars become beauty marks, especially on the face? I have always found that to be a soulful thing....
pixelpixie: A belated thanks Ginnie. Still trying to get back into the swing of things.
You sound as though you've had a rough time Jose although I didn't pick up on that earlier on and don't know what your problem's been. All I can say is that the Shutterchance cyber network has given me a clear focus and strong support in dealing with and (hopefully) recovering from the cancer I had last summer. Hope it works for you!
pixelpixie: Sorry for not having replied sooner Ron. I had no idea you have come through cancer. I can't begin to think what that must have been like for you. I have had a really rough time but I seem to be starting to look back at it instead of being constantly in it so that's good. You're right about the support that the Shutterchance community gives and I am benefiting too. I just need to get posting again
interesting shot.
pixelpixie: Thank-you Chichi and thanks for your visit.
Welcome back Jose: scars are everywhere - on the body, in the mind, over the landscape. Great image!
pixelpixie: Thanks Chris. You're so right about the landscape, You've helped to give me a broader perspective! Just need to post another image now
healing is a process and scars serve a purpose in that process--take care that the scars don't become hard and callus
pixelpixie: I'm taking great care Kathryn, thank-you for your care too.
Jose,
Scars do heal and they bind the skin around us...making our hides tough. I have this awful scar on my left knee from a surgery 25 years ago. I used to scare little kids away with it (not intentionally!). I expect this scar to be part of me forever. It's now part of me that I've accepted. I truly wish you the best and look forward to seeing more of your images.
pixelpixie: Thank-you Kay. Learning to accept things is key to moving on but often that's the stumbling block when it's not the way you want things to be. Time is the big healer - I hope
This is a very strong image, a lot of things come in my mind...love the tones and yes...scares do heal if we do take care of them and are NOT in a hurry.
pixelpixie: Thank-you Astrid. Sorry for taking such a long time to reply. Time and patience is what's needed, you're right.
Ahaha! There you are; welcome back! I hope that you've not had a bit of a bummer such as this shown here!
pixelpixie: Thanks Alan, I'll be back more regularly soon. Metaphorically yes, I've had a bummer of a time - still here to tell the tale though
a very powerful and moving image Jose
time and patience are very powerful healers. take care.
pixelpixie: Thanks very much deji, that's a real compliment coming from you and I agree, time and patience is what's required. Thanks for your kind words.
An image with a personal reflection! We teach our scars and we leave cures them to the wind!
pixelpixie: Yes, it is a personal reflection but also something conceptual to visualise pain and suffering. Time does soothe.
oooof.....welcome
pixelpixie: Hey thanks Jide. Good to see you posting again.
sometimes people belive what they are told does anyone really know this woman and does she really have inner scars.i know she has plenty of someone elses money.
