i ♥ Faces - Self Portrait



Ok people, who's wonderful idea was this? Not only is this weeks theme at i ♥ Faces "self portrait" but it has to be taken hand held, no tripods or remotes!
Wow, it's NOT fun trying to get a picture of your self at that angle, that close and then have to look at it all enlarged while you edit! I must have take 30+ pictures to only find 2 worth messing with, then I had a hard time deciding between the 2.

So here I am in all my glory {wrinkles and all}



Go meet all of the other great faces behind the cameras over at I ♥ Faces

Great pic, Cheryl! Doesn't look like a self-portrait at all. When I've tried it, you can see my shoulder raised up from holding out the camera! LOL
