week 1 self portraits - 52 weeks
These self confident 20 somethings with great cheekbones and a slender but curvy frame have it easy - a great photo subject available every day. I am 42 and have never had the easy beauty some women on flickr are blessed with.
I have been fortunate so far that all of my portrait subjects have been so photogenic. I am not naturally photogenic, have never been comfortable in front of the camera. Some day I may encounter a portrait client that is like me. I want to be able to serve her well. This is also a great chance to track my fitness goals. In 2011 I started running and lost some fat, gained some muscle. This year I will push harder and achieve more.
I will be more physically fit and I will be a better photographer - more able to flatter every face and every figure.
oops apparently this image already broke a rule of the Project 365! group (no composits and no portriats) well, I took it before I was sure I'd join and hadn't read the rules. now I know - I'll be better in the future. Though I think showing front back and side view is good for my fitness progression project. may have to keep it separate.
