#056 SP Friday

Its Friday so had a go at some self portraits, not so easy.
Someone once said there are two "you's", the one you see in the mirror and the one you see in photo's.
I suspect most of us are much happier with the one in the mirror !


Here's another try, but somebody got in the way !

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM
1/8000s f/4.0 at 40.0mm iso800 with Flash full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Hi John! I agree about the mirror and photo thing, which one tells the truth??

Excellent SP with good detail. I think what you say about being two of you is correct. The one I see in the mirror is definitely 20 years younger than the one I see in photographs!

Very nice B&W and SP.

both really nice SPs John.

I really like both of your pictures. The first one because eventhough it is staged your smile does not appear to be and I like the black and white. The other, because someone whom I assume cares for, wants to be in your SP! Still a Self Portrait with your other half in it :)
