I'll contribute. I usually am clean shaven and figured I'd get a shot of myself while I haven't shaved in a few days. Is there a thread that gives advice for self portraits?

Hey Athena.....long-time no see!

Another inspiring pic from you....and I like your use of selective colour.
I know it gets a bad press, but used well - like here - shows that the "old" techniques can still hit the bullseye.

Well done.

My latest attempt. Unfortunately not in focus, but close enough at small sizes. Someday, I'll get a remote trigger for this sort of thing.

Thanks guys :)

I myself am generally a hater of selective color, so it took some effort for me to come up with a way to use it that I found fully appropriate. ;)

Not sure if this is too risqué for this thread...or just plain disgusting to look at! :oops:

EDIT: Posted in G&N just in case!
