28/52: Long Exposure


Being a twin, with twin brothers, and twin daughters I can't begin to count the amount of times I've been asked about the "twin connection." For example, "Do you feel your sister's pain?" or "Do you know what your sister is thinking?" or "Does Ruby cry when Vera falls?" and on and on.

Often times, I feel these people forget that we are individuals and not one entity. More so, even, individuals with multifaceted interests, opinions, personalities of our own. For me, this image represents that within me - one individual - there exists this plethora of idiosyncrasies that are distinctly Melissa.

Also, I think it looks creepily like the girls from "The Shining."
