Photo of a green field in spring, with a patch of white snow hidden from the sun behind a small mound, bordered by the forest in the back, under a light blue sky. A plane with its white trail is in the sky. And no, there is no hidden pig in there.

<p>Old profile pic (extremely post-processed)</p><p>* This week marks a <a href="/tags/fediversary/" rel="tag">#Fediversary</a> on my current host <a href="/tags/cyberplace/" rel="tag">#CyberPlace</a></p><p><a href="/tags/throwbackthursday/" rel="tag">#ThrowBackThursday</a> <a href="/tags/minimalism/" rel="tag">#Minimalism</a> <a href="/tags/selfie/" rel="tag">#Selfie</a> <a href="/tags/photography/" rel="tag">#Photography</a></p>

A minimalist, line-art selfie, made in Photoshop somewhere between 2010 and 2015. The style is highly abstract and minimalist, using only a few simple black lines on a white background to suggest the facial features and hair.

The hair is represented by a cluster of short, curved, somewhat jagged lines on the top of the head. Curved lines suggest the eyebrows or the crease of the forehead.The eyes give the impression of a focused gaze. There is a single, short, curved line that suggests the bottom and side of the nose. A long, gentle curve suggests the contour of the jaw and chin.

A simple, upward-curving horizontal line forms a smile.

A scattered collection of old, physical photographs from a family's photo album, depicting scenes from different periods of life, particularly childhood.

The overall impression is one of nostalgia and family memories, captured in a time before digital photography was common. The photos are arranged in a casual, overlapping pile, suggesting someone has just gone through them.
