I can't believe you look so relaxed!!! I would have such a hard time hitting the button and then hustling back to my chair...I guess that's why all my self portraits are so in-your-face! Beautiful portrait! Sarah

Thanks you guys. Yes, I used the self-timer. Just pushed the button and sat down in my favorite chair. I took about 15 pictures to get this one and the other one that I played with in Photoshop. Maybe it was because it was at the end of a long work day and I just felt like relaxing. ;) Ann

I'm also interested in knowing how you took the shot while looking so calm. Very warm, poised, comforting. Very nice image.

Very nice, Ann! I assume you were using the self-timer and I can't figure how you managed to look so relaxed! Good job! Kim
