 A Self Portrait

Getting the 'hello' sign level and not tilted forward or backward was the hardest part of this. No mirror outside to see it for myself and it was impossible to see it through that little hole.

Anyway, I'm pleased with this.

I had fun.

That's what it's all about, huh?

What?! You wonder why my shirt's on backwards?

Mind your own business. I don't have to explain anything. And you can't prove it, anyway. *rolleyes*

Great shot, Lydia. Very creative. I didn't notice your eye (or the mad glint in it ;-) till I read the comments ;-D Congrats on top 10.

Ahh Lydia - I thought this was excellent! I gave it an 8. I loved the whole composition. It reminded me of an ad for a fun restaurant. Very clever!

Lydia...really thought this one would be a ribboner. Congratulations on the Top 10 finish. It's well deserved! :)

BTW...you had your shirt on backwards because either it has a v-neck to it that would have shown in the shot...OR...you dumped lunch down the front of it! ;-P

I wasn't wondering about your shirt, but I did wonder why you were wearing two different shoes. Eh, to each her own. ;-) Congrats!

Clever and well done. I was looking too hard before the obvious smacked me... Nicely shot also. Great use of B/W to accomplish the theme.
