In this exercise, I’ve taken an old/scanned/unattached image of a Christmas greeting card that was mailed to our residence back in 2011! What I see are truly happy people with big smiles. The dog may also be smiling but I’m not sure.
Since politicians are public figures, I felt this image would be more appropriate for posting instead of loved ones or me over concerns of any facial-recognition system that may already be ongoing, even in blogging here at WordPress.com.
I know this photo is NOT ideally of a loved one or me, neither does fit the bill from my old photos nor captures an impromptu moment of joy from my cameraphone. I value my privacy and my family doesn’t really care for this sort of online publicity.
For example, yesterday I recall how Marianne my (paternal/first) cousin took a blurred photo of my family and me during a rare/last attendance of a Christmas party with the ungrateful relatives at her second/smaller home in San Ramon, CA. Both the red/laser/focus light and then its flash light turned on for the first photo. But for the second shot, she took a while to readjust the camera WITHOUT both lights. She posted/shared this blurred/latter/second/stupid photo in her Google’s Picasa with other photos being clear. Her husband worked at home for Yahoo! These people must hate my family and me for whatever reason.
So you will notice that some old blog entries/post no longer include photos with faces of unknown people,especially my family or me. It’s NOT worth this sort of exposure when I’ve got perfect strangers following my blog. This is the truth and fiction cannot be more stranger than living in a world where no one really cares/knows who is in those photos. Eventually, the living will forget the dead in these photos, eh.
