Double the Hair

Yes, I did once have a full head of hair.  And, for a few years, a goatee  as well.  This, in case you don't recognize it, is the OG pic for this blog.  I think I'm around 27.  I'm on a beach in Corsica lying on a beach towel.  A family friend is walking by and calls my name.  I look up, slightly startled, and he snaps this picture leaning over me (I think photo creds belong to Michel Brunet but I could be wrong).  So the 'upside down' pic is the correct orientation.  

For fun, I rotated the pic to see if I look different.  I just see about four times as much hair as I have these days...


Kind of an optical illusion effect combined with a yin-yang composition with a bit of an absurdist Magritte feel ('Ceci n'est pas un Ken'), no?
