Me with my new joint birthday gift from my parents and myself to myself:
Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM. I shot it in the bathroom using the bathroom mirror and the medicine cabinet mirror.
Self Portrait - My own hand, shows my unique finger prints and some of the healing scars from the work I used to do - I was a Carpenter and have drilled through my finger in work amongst other things the finger appears healed but still has marks where these events have happened.
Funny self-portait I took with the equipment of Jordi (http://www.flickr.com/photos/jordimaggi/) while we were making a shooting session for a friend. I took this with a remote controller. Funny day and the first time we were trying studio light settings..
:)
I was in right mood to make jokes that day ;)
You can usually find me at the bottom of a wine glass.
This shot makes my kitchen seem even smaller than it actually is.
In other news, as I'm sure is obvious, I'm in a creative rut.
I find that I get more creative when I do Self-Portraits rather then taking other people's portraits. This was taken with one strobe light.
i have a confession.
i'm afraid of dentists.
or, at least...i was. i avoided going for as long as possible...but then one day (due to necessity) i wised up and realized that my avoidance tactics were actually pure stupidity. AND SO...i went. and they were nice to me. they were really nice to me. they told me i had to come in seven more times. the first time i was there, i even got a hug when i left. by the second time, everyone there knew me by my first name and they all broke into great big smiles with lots of hellos when i walked in. by now, we're all practically like old friends. this, of course, probably doesn't speak well to the amount of work i needed done on my teeth, but you get the point. my fear of dentists in no way matched the reality of the situation and, before i knew it, i had an entire office full of women caring for and about me in every way i could have ever needed.
the moral of the story is to make sure to go to the dentist every six months like you're supposed to. and if you haven't, give yourself a break from the scary monster in your head and go anyway.
needless to say, we got a lot of work done on my pearly whites today. despite a four hour appointment, i've had worse days than this. we actually laughed a lot and i'm starting to feel pretty much at home there.
the other moral of the story is that i'm going to floss every day for the rest of my life (and you should, too). heck, i might even stop in just to say hello.
these photos are post dental work. oh, how i love the way a numb lip looks! (eh-em)
Diary of a Self Portrait. :: 365 Days of Self Portraits :: A Challenge
I always thought "Portrait of an Idiot" was the best Description for any Self, and this one is not an exception :)
"take the damn picture!"

Part of an on-going exploration of myself and what the images I shoot mean to me. Currently, though for no real reason that I can come up with, there's a strong compelling 'thing' making me think self portraiture is a clever idea. Maybe it's something deep and meaningful such as a more immediate way with which to express myself, maybe I'm just so damned handsome I can't help but love my own appearance.
Not the second one then... ;-)
I don't know about you guys out there in the cyberland of Flickr, but I often find that my mind wanders and ponders whilst spending that odd minute too long in the shower. I enjoy it, the space to relax and be alone. Away from contact with anything or anyone else, just for those few minutes. I'm quite sure sometimes I just appear as though I'm falling asleep or in a daze, other times probably more like I'm quite sad. Probably actually smiling inside. Well, usually.
Shot with much messing about, a naked light bulb looking at one shoulder, and a diffused light bulb over the other, and with an off camera 580EX down on the floor getting wet...
