Have you ever wondered how many unknown
pictures of you are there in the world? I have. And I am not talking about the sum
of the pictures I upload on Facebook plus the ones I refuse to share. No. I'm talking about ALL the pictures that, without me knowing, I get to be in. How many
cute romantic selfies, family pictures, and vacation shots in the whole entire
world have the privilege (or misfortune) to have my face in them?
If I could get to find every single one
of those pictures and display it in chronological order, what kind of life
story would they be showing? Would I be surprised? Embarrassed? Would it be
accurate? Misleading?
I wonder if there is somebody in
Greenland, Cairo, or Borneo with a pretty epic portrait of a family trip where
my presence is part of the sea of nameless faces that conform the trivial
background.
It really does intrigue me. How many millions of accidental
photo-bombs am I part of? How many countries has my anonymous face visited so
far?
I guess I’ll never know.
