In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “Express Yourself.”
I have many different ideas for “express yourself”: flowers laid in memory of 9 April 1989, an artist with his work, an irate taxi driver, my granddaughter Ana expressing her creativity with Lego, a swallow expressing itself in its call, some neighbours launching a fire heart into the air to express their love , a girl unable to express herself like her friends having no smartphone to hand and me expressing myself with these images (my take on the world).
There are many ways to express yourself:
Express your sorrow with flowers:
Flowers expressing sorrow at the tragedy of 9 April 1989.
2. Express yourself through art (I’ve seen lots of other entries depicting arts and crafts like this one Joy)…
Artist Antonio Guerrero with his artworks.
3. Express your anger, the red mist, through expressions, hand gestures and bad language:
A taxi driver expressing himself when someone takes his parking space…luckily you don’t hear his words just witness his expression.
4. Express yourself creatively:
Ana expressing herself with Lego
5. Express yourself in song:
A Swallow Expressing Itself
6. Express your love with a dramatic gesture:
Launching a fire heart to express love
Express yourself…you don’t need a smartphone to do it…
No smartphone…no comment

I love the second photo of the real ‘twitter’ … the last one is like watching the ghosts through the screen of the smartphone 🙂 cheers
smartphones can lead to dumb people….
I love the “No smartphone…no comment”. God, this is so true. Refused a smartphone for many years and often have been in the same situation. Now I’m addicted…
I haven’t got a smartphone yet, but I can see the attraction.
The “no smartphone” photo goes well with the theme! Love it!
Thank you, it was one of those photos that came out better than I had hoped.
Very thoughtful photos
Quite an eclectic mix!
I think the challenge “Express yourself” has a myriad of possibilities…
each photo fully represents this week’s prompt. nice take on the challenge. i like the last one the best.
Thank you…”express yourself” has a broad scope for interpretation.
Great post! Love the images and your broad interpretation of expressing oneself. Thank you for linking to “joy” and especially love the singing swallow, conveyance of the driver’s response without actually showing it and the flowers.
I thought your “Joy” was very creative…hence the link.
All good choices for the challenge, but I particularly liked the photo with the smartphones. A picture says a thousand words in that one for sure!
