Yes, I know you’ve seen this guy before. And, yes, I also know he’s not as pretty as Tracy (se Nov 24ht PAD), but, believe it or not, he does have some good qualities. Here’s a couple of examples: 1) he’s easy to coax in front a camera, just offer him chocolate, 2) he does just about everything I think he should do and sometimes more, so the interactions good. Of course he’s not perfect and there are a few character defects that are being worked on. He does one thing that bothers me, though. After every shot he has this tendency to run around behind the camera and chimp the LCD looking at the histogram and his expression. He will sometimes grimace and make strange looking faces, maybe a grunt or two, then suggests we try it again. He could also use a haircut!

Oh, that sounds like me but I'm not handsome like you!;)

lol.. I do the same (chimp, grimace, grunt)!

This is an excellent self portrait - it would make a great book-jacket photo. :)
