Emotions are in many ways, who we are, or at least the expressed part of who we are.
Choose any of the following emotions below and capture it in this week’s photo challenge.
Be sure to include the emotion you choose (the exact word) in the pictures.
Here’s the catch, you will choose one emotion and take two pictures of the same emotion, one with a person and one without a person. you will have the two sit next to each other with an appropriate colored frame going up the middle.
Tons of different text effects tutorials can be found here and here.

It’s perfect (some might say too perfect) that I feature Ida Borg as photographer of the day on the same day that I unveil the Emo Project. But what a great example of how to do it right.
Look at how she captures emotions in all of these pictures, without having people in them. Something to take notes on for your Emo project, that’s for sure, goshdarnit.
