We had roots that grew towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossom had fallen from our branches we found that we were one tree and not two.”
Louis de Bernieres
They say opposites attract and yet we are very similar people. We, mostly, like the same things. We clicked together before we managed to meet in person. Whilst he wasn’t my ‘type’ I immediately enjoyed our conversations and trusted him straight away.
We grew together perfectly, even though neither of us are perfect but we fit so perfectly into each other lives. We dance around each other with ease and even during this weird and awful year, we haven’t had a single falling out, even if my hormones have made me grouchy at times!
And when I saw this weekends prompt of editing someone else’s picture, we both had the same idea. He is the photoshop expert and edits all my images, so instead of getting someone else to edit the image I would have a go. And just for fun we both edited it in secret and then revealed the to each other.
I knew it would be different as he prefers images that are fairly close to the original image and I quite like playing about with more stylised edits and whilst there were jokes about us being similar and doing the same this, deep down I knew it wouldn’t be the case.
How wrong was I?! He had gone outside his comfort zone and created the exact same stylised edit as I had! As photoshop is more his thing than mine, I sent him away to do a different edit and left him to it.
Can you guess which is which? And which edit do you prefer?
The experience was lots of fun and just goes to show, whilst our roots are different we are both from the same tree.
