This weeks challenge from Strawberry Singh is quite the trip down memory lane and so much fun: first and recent!

After the great Hard Disk Crash in 2012, ya know..the one I had NO back-up from..ahem, I lost tons and tons of my pictures..I got over that loss, it happened. Oh and I do back-ups now too. Doh.
Anyway, luckily in 2007, when I was a young Caity, I had no idea you could save images to your Hard Disk anyway, so I have a lot of early pictures in my inventory! It took me a bit to find the oldest one, as I also wasn’t really good in renaming them – hence a folder filled with snapshots called : snapshot. Sigh.

I found my first profile portrait though, it is from November 2007, and I remember I was actually quite proud of my super looks and thought I looked amazing! Calico hair, and my first tattoo!
I am still wearing this shape, it’s tweaked over time, but it is still the ‘girl next door’ and if you look closely you see I was already modelling the face I have nowadays. Well I see it!

A really great challenge, and don’t forget to have a look at all the other participants in the flickr-group!
