Photo #314: Framed Self Portrait

Every now and then, when I feel I'm having a "good hair" day, I try taking a picture of myself. This has become necessary, since I do so much social networking and blogging. Websites and blogs ask for a portrait to be used as your "avatar." For every two hundred photos I take, if I'm lucky, I may find one that I can tolerate. I snapped this one a few days ago, and I actually like it.

Photo #237: Me

Every now and then, I try to get a decent photo of myself, to use as an avatar. I employ the "hold the camera in front of yourself with one hand method." I have to take a lot of shots, sometimes on multiple occasions to come up with something I can live with. Usually I try it in the house, but I generally get better photos outside. I always hope none of my neightbors are looking out the window when I'm doing this. This one is pretty good.

Daily Shoot Sunday Challenge: Make a self-portrait, with or without the camera in the frame.

I hope none of my neighbors were watching as I sat on my deck taking about 40 pictures of myself, trying to find something I could live with. So here is a picture of me, frame and all.
