The Terror Of The Lens

I hate having my picture taken. I'm only comfortable behind the camera; put a lens in my face, and I start to panic. Sometimes my friends persuade me to pose for them. Invariably, they produce pictures that make me look fat, stupid or psychopathic (and those are the good ones).

 

But sometimes, in self-defence, I'll pick up my camera in the middle of the session and shoot them back – and sometimes, I'll get a shot like this. I feel a little panicky even now, just looking at that big lens, staring me in the face – but it's worth it for the shot :)
