1/52 Portrait: Self Portrait

Old Christmas is past,

Twelfth Night is the last,

And we bid you adieu,

Great joy to the new.

 

What a start to the 52 week photography challenge... a self portrait.

 

*retch*

 

Taking pictures of people is my least favourite part of photography, and photographing myself I like even less. Still, I tried to make the best of it and this is my offering for the week.

 

Seeing as tonight is Twelfth Night, when traditionally people take down their trimmings, I thought I'd do a bauble selfie. I have now taken everything down except my tree which I will dismantle tomorrow after work. The lights are on tonight for the last time :'(

 

My rule is: so long as everything is packed away by the end of Epiphany then the tree sprites won't come out to cause mischief. Although why they'd be hiding in a fake tree from Stephen H Smith's Garden Centre I've never quite understood. I'm not risking it though.
