Young Me / Now Me

April 24, 2008

Wow, have you guys seen this yet? This is a photo essay that anyone can participate in called “Young Me / Now Me”. Take a photo of yourself today in the same position, setting and possibly the same clothes as a photo of a younger version of yourself. This reminds me of postsecret, in that the photos can be rather telling - are you still smiling, goofy, & young at heart? I especially love the folks who are really trying to set up the same shot - even the same shirt and shoes. What a wonderful project!

I don’t know what it is about these photos, but I just can’t stop looking at them. There are 20 pages of galleries - do you have an hour to kill?

I particularly like this YouTube video of Lauren Thompson {no relation} dancing along with her four year old self. Enjoy.
