Here’s my most consistent, oldest and cheapest model, again. I knew SP Friday was coming, so I worked on an image yesterday to post for today. I never thought self-portraits would entail all that they do. There can be a lot involved in them. We have to setup the tripod, run back and forth to see what we like and don’t like, what needs to be changed. We have to make sure the model is cooperating. It really is time consuming. But the positive side is it has been a great learning experience. I’ve also come to appreciate those who work on those self-portraits.

I’m sitting in a coffee shop watching it getting very dark in the north and west as a heavy thunderstorm makes it’s way through the area. Very strange colors and hues. Flashes of lightening are popping all over the place while thunder rumbles. It’s looks like it’s gonna be a whopper! Hope everyone has an Awesome weekend!
