When chatting with photographer Christof Sage about photography the other day, he showed me some portraits of himself. And he brought me one magazine where his picture was on the cover and said: \u201c\u2026and that`s how he (the photographer who has taken that picture) has seen me.\u201d<\/p>

I found it interesting that he framed it this way. Our self-image is usually different from how others see us \u2013 and different from how we really look. In fact, some scientists have done experiments that show that we tend to think of ourselves as better looking than we are in reality ( https:\/\/en.m.wikiversity.org\/wiki\/Interpersonal_attraction )<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Photos and self-image <\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

I know people who run as soon as they see a camera pointed at them. As a teenager when I was very uneasy about how I looked, I used to do the same. My bad \u2013 meanwhile I would be glad if I had more pictures of myself from twenty years ago. Now, I think it`s truly nice when somebody bothers to take a picture of me.<\/p>

I like when people send me photos of myself. Not because I`m so in love with my looks, but because I just find it really interesting. We usually don`t get to see ourselves from other angles than the one our mirror provides. So, I feel like I get to know myself more. And my self-image becomes more complete. And by seeing more and more pictures of myself, I m less surprised about how I look and just get used and comfortable with it.<\/p>

With a more accurate self-image, I feel freer to BE and don`t need to run. I then can be more open because I don`t have to constantly wonder and worry or even fear how others might see me. Because I know how I look.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t

Wonderfully made<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Most of all, I want to not take myself so overly seriously. So, I`ve got a big nose \u2013 well, there certainly are more serious issues than that in this world and as long as it is enabling me to breathe, I don`t want to be ungrateful. There is a Psalm I like that says: \u201cI praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well\u2026\u201d It`s true: when I criticize my looks, I kind of feel, that this is such a wrong and ungrateful thing to do. I want to look at my picture saying: Yes that`s me, with a beating heart that is capable to hope, and a mouth that is able to smile bright.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Bilder und wir<\/h1>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Als ich mich neulich mit Fotograf Christof Sage \u00fcber Fotografie unterhalten habe, zeigte er mir ein paar Portraits von ihm. Er brachte ein Magazin, auf dem sein Portrait auf dem Cover war, mit den Worten: \u201c\u2026und so hat er (der Fotograf, der das Bild gemacht hat) mich gesehen.\u201c<\/p>

Das fand ich interessant, dass er das so formuliert hat. Unser Selbstbild ist ja normalweise nicht deckungsgleich mit dem Bild, das andere von uns haben \u2013 und entspricht auch nicht der Realit\u00e4t. Tats\u00e4chlich haben einige Wissenschaftler Experimente gemacht, die zeigen: Wir halten uns in der Regel f\u00fcr besser aussehend, als wir in Wirklichkeit sind (https:\/\/en.m.wikiversity.org\/wiki\/Interpersonal_attraction).<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

Wenn du wei\u00dft, wie du aussiehst, brauchst du nicht wegzurennen<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Ich kenne Leute, die sofort wegrennen, wenn sie eine Kamera auf sich gerichtet sehen. Als Teenie, als ich mich noch sehr unwohl damit gef\u00fchlt habe, wie ich aussehe, habe ich das auch gemacht. Mein Pech \u2013 mittlerweile w\u00e4re ich froh, wenn ich mehr Fotos von mir von vor 20 Jahren h\u00e4tte. Jetzt denke ich, es ist besonders nett, wenn sich jemand die M\u00fche macht, ein Bild von mir zu machen.<\/p>

Ich mag es, wenn Leute mir Fotos von mir schicken. Nicht weil ich mich so gutaussehend finde, sondern weil ich es wirklich interessant finde. Wir sehen uns normalerweise nicht aus anderen Winkeln als dem, den unser Spiegel uns bietet. Also habe ich das Gef\u00fchl, mich so besser kennenzulernen. Und wenn ich mich \u00f6fter mal auf Bildern sehe, bin ich immer weniger \u00fcberrascht davon, wie ich aussehe und gew\u00f6hne mich daran.<\/p>

Ich muss dann nicht mehr wegrennen. Ich kann offener sein, weil ich mich nicht dauernd frage, wie andere mich sehen k\u00f6nnten. Weil ich ja wei\u00df, wie ich aussehe.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

Wunderbar gemacht<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Vor allem will ich mich selbst nicht so wichtig nehmen. Dann hab ich eben eine gro\u00dfe Nase \u2013 es gibt sicherlich wichtigere Probleme auf dieser Welt und solange ich mit ihr atmen kann, will ich nicht undankbar sein. Es gibt einen Psalm, den ich mag: \u201cIch danke dir daf\u00fcr, dass ich so sorgf\u00e4ltig und wunderbar gemacht bin. Wunderbar sind deine Werke; meine Seele wei\u00df es.\u201d Das stimmt schon: Wenn ich an meinem Aussehen rummeckere, wei\u00df ich gleichzeitig, dass das so falsch ist. Ich will ein Bild von mir anschauen und sagen: Ja, das bin ich, mit einem schlagenden Herzen, das hoffen kann und einem Mund, der lachen kann.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
