It's been a little quiet around here lately... maybe it's time to shake things up a bit and think about number three! Three... photos of you, from that craziest period of life that every human goes through.
Teenage days!
I wonder if anyone will dare to share pictures from that era. They can be quite funny. Somehow, that young person in the photo is different, like démodé or in other cases too free, but on the other hand you see yourself and think you have not changed at all. It is you!
I have already shared some of my photos from those times here in other posts, so I will leave them aside now. However, I found a lot of other photos today in my old photo albums and there is one thing they all have in common. Ok, not only do these photos represent me, from my younger self to a few years ago, but what they have in common is that all the photos have some flaws. 😒 Why? Didn't we care about taking a good photo? I don't know, I guess the most important thing wasn't to straighten the horizon line or think about the rule of thirds. The important thing was to capture the person and the moment.
Moments - they are coming now and I will try to say a few words about each one.
One
This picture of the photograph is not blurred just because I took it now. (it is evening now here... I had a terribly ineffective day. The plan was to sort out many things, to work and clean and select and pack some things and I just did nothing. 🤦♀ Evening knocked on my doors anyway)
This old photo of me is a bit blurry on its own, it is old. Also, it was taken with the sun behind me, showing a beautiful sunset over the river and there is a person in a long coat pretending to pose for a photo. That was silly. Not the moment, my outfit and my posture with my gaze lost in the distance, but the fact that I was standing on a piece of ice!
True, it was a cold winter, one of those when the shallow parts of the river near the shore froze over. That layer of ice was thick, but in any case, you never know if there is a crack or a thin patch of ice. There you can fall under the ice into the cold water and with a coat like this, which would be immediately soaked with water, you are done in a few minutes. End.
What a crazy idea for the place of this photo; I don't think I would do it again now.
Two
This photo is one of those fails I mentioned earlier. 😂
Look at that horizon line. Was the water leaking to the right side of the photo? What was I doing in the sea in April when I was seventeen? And that dress - trying to save it from the waves? Oh well, that was my first meeting with this particular salty lake, the Mediterranean.
Three
This photo was one of the last on the roll of film, which is why it has those white spots at the bottom. It wasn't a ghost, don't worry. I went to develop photos with my best friend from a camera I had (I don't think it exists anymore). At that moment we took photos of each other - I took one photo of her, and then she took this one of mine. To this day, I keep these two photos and even though they have these spots, it doesn't matter. They are frozen moments, accompanied by emotions.
If you found this post interesting or if you at least laughed at these old photos of mine, maybe you want to participate in this challenge.
Show three photos of yourself as a teenager and explain why you chose them. Let the fun begin.

Would I recognize you? 😁 Fingers crossed you find something, if you find them and decide to post in this challenge, please let me know with a little tag so I don't miss it out, hvala ;)
most probably :)
Ah!! The teenage us! A challenge for the bravest 💪 and I can see it being a fun and potential hilarious one, I know mine will be, the hair style and clothes back in those days 😜
Can't wait to see your ones:)
I remember one when you have danced with a group of other classmates or students 🎶
What a nostalgia to see photos of adolescence and to reflect. It made me think of the past. I'm going to look for my photos at my mother's house to show them to my son.
Always good moments when we browse among old photos 😊 and showing to our children, then they can also see/feel how it was in the past.
How nice to take pictures of adolescence. Oh my friend, what a beautiful girl in your adolescence. When I get home I'm going to look for some very nice ones that I keep. Here in my country at 15 years of age girls have a party and they take many studio photos, in open places on the beach, but special photos. I am going to show mine. Greetings and thanks for showing.
Looking forward to seeing your teenage photos ;) I learned here on Hive about that tradition, when someone turns 15 years
Beautiful moments and what a great time shared with your friend, what beautiful photos, the last one I really liked. The one on the beach you are super cheerful, it gives off a beautiful energy!
A big hug Mipiano!💗
Yes, that one is cheerful, happy moment of feeling the cold sea in April 😁 and then, years later I came to live in Spain 😇
I hope you are very happy here!!!! I do!😃
Haha an interesting challenge with three photos maybe we will be enticed to bring an old fashion back :-)
We can see different outfits and styles hahaha, hope to see your selection 🤞
Haha no teenage pictures here at my house. But they do exists in a land not too far way 😃
The "not too far away" gives me hopes :D
Give or take 3 hours to be exact 😃 So it's a possibility and the odds of it happening are well good. In a few weeks I visit and if I don't forget you can see some late 80's/early 90's style (or lack of).
Second photo looks so happy!
I was waaaaaay to rebel to have photos of teenage me. "No photos," was the motto back then. I used to travel, take a camera with me, and don't record any photos \o\
No photos was my motto too, but when I was small. Teenage days - a few photos here and there but not too much either
Hahaha, so why did you take the camera with you then? 😁
For the same reason I carry books on bicycle/backpacking trips xD
For the extra weight, you know... so wind doesn't blow me away
😂😂😂
Muy curioso y divertido el texto de tu publicacion, pero...mi lento internet no acaba de descargar las fotos jajajjj
Me gusta este reto,cómo hago para participar??.
es mejor 😂
¿Este desafío de tres fotos de la adolescencia? ¿O cualquier otro tema que dejé a continuación? Si es de las fotos pues saca fotos de tus tres fotografías de tu adolescencia, explica algo sobre los momentos cuando se tomaron o alguna cosa interesante sobre ellas, publica en esta comunidad Three Challenges y listo ;)
okeyyyy
I even was not in the know of such a Hive community.
Now you know 😉
Belleza en pote de helado jajaja... frozen beauty.
Are you ready to see my 15 years photos? 😁
😂 sí, sure. En mi caso en un sentido metafórico.
There were already some photos with musical hairstyles 😉 but looking forward to seeing your other choices too. I chose here some of the more "normal" ones 😁
Ya, claro que cambiamos, mucho, es solo la sensación y una esperanza falsa que no jajaja
I believe that this initiative, besides being fun, will be to remember our youth, those beautiful times that only now we will remember by looking at the photos. Have a nice weekend 😇🤗.
Old photos make this magic - they indeed help us remember our youth and the moments that happened then :)
Thank you Mamani, may you have a nice weekend too 🍀
That’s such a cool idea… teenager photos. 🤣😂 crazy times back in the days !LOL
Great choice of photos.
I love the first one. The colors and sun behind you. The water edge…
I could even paint it, it is inspiring. It speaks in many ways. Don’t know why. Maybe it’s softness and composition.
Have a fantastic weekend 👋🏻
!LADY
I hope you have some around, if not in boxes still :D
When I see now that first photo, I also see an artistic touch, or it's just the sunset that gave that softness. A large amount of water flew down that river since then 😉
I have some around, in boxes like you say. Hahaha 🤣 but will look if there is somewhere a few that are showable 😇 !LOL
Its stunning that photo. It reminds me of the egg tempura paintings of Julio Reyes.
If ever you would decide to agree with it to be used as a reference for a painting. Let me know… I would love to paint that scene… the mood and colors are perfect.
Yes, please go ahead, I would be happy if you would do that. A moment from my youth would be a reference for a new moment, an artwork - how cool and exciting is that! 🥰
Let me know if you paint something, would love to see it! 😇
Here I leave you another photo too, not that dark, maybe it was a few moments earlier so the sun still didn't hide behind the trees or simply because of the different angle. What a childish face a had 😂😂😂 and many layers of clothes because of the cold. Notice on what I am standing 🤦🏻♀️.
I am trying to get a better photo but they just have too shiny surface
Oh Thank you so much @mipiano ☺️ I love to paint it.
Give me a few weeks to set up and finish the things I am working on right now and I will start 🎨
Thanks for the additional photos. They help me identify the surroundings better.
Wow… you were standing on the ice. I see it was a very cold day. ❄️
Do you have a scanner? To scan the photo in…
I know shiny surfaces can be hard to photograph. This is my discord: littlebee4 (the same as hive) for you to send it through if you are on discord… any further questions / things or the progress we can discuss there, maybe easier. 😁

Omg you are such a pretty one! 😍 I like the first photo you shared, your hair reminds me of Anne Hathaway's hair way back in her younger years.~
Thank you, for the comparison with Anne Hathway's hair too :)
I have always had similar haircuts, sometimes longer sometimes shorter, if this makes any sense what I have just said 😂
What a great challenge and fun to see photos of you as a teenager.
Thank you and I am glad you also participated ;))
I only read it now! Will rummage my Facebook and check old photos!
