This week’s prompt asked me to capture a photo that was inspired by my current mood. I chose to photograph these roses because they’re slightly wilting and not standing as tall as usual, mirroring my inner feelings as I try to keep my head up despite running on little sleep and experiencing heavy stress from school. However, even though they aren’t perfect right now, the roses still have the strength to stand upright again. This is reflective of me and my capabilities because I know that I am strong enough to bounce back with full energy, but I need to take better care of myself for that to happen.
