SL – Week 22: Transparency

I knew exactly which picture I wanted to post for Silvain Landry’s task of his SL Photo Challenge. But then I started thinking about what the word “Transparency” means. The definition is pretty clear:

Transparency:
1. The condition of being transparent.”the transparency of ice”
2. A positive transparent photograph printed on transparent plastic or glass, able to be viewed using a slide projector.

But then there’s also a behavioral side to the word.

Transparency:
Openness in communication. Accountability.

So I tried to figure out how to capture that in a picture… How would you picture openness, communication or accountability really? Of course I know there are pictures for it. But how to put the meaning of it really in a picture?

In any case, here is what I came up with:

First up my friend the jellyfish…

Then of course a wave:

I tried really hard to come up with a picture that could showcase openness but so far I did not succeed. How could you possibly picture honesty and openness? It’s a feeling, it’s a value… and that you simply can’t put in a picture…
