I dislike seeing pictures of me so I am happy that I can use software to edit this. I'm starting the new year by forcing myself to get in front of the camera more. This is what I am so I may as well work with it! :)
Taken outside in the field where I take a lot of my other shots. It was cold and windy today - brrr
Happy 2012!

Haha I think I do have somewhat of a wonker of a nose lol. But I was exaggerating things a smidge by bringing in the wide angle lens a bit closer to the face. I wanted to see what effect it would have visually.

One of the more genuine expressions in the challenge, which I think is one of the most important yet difficult aspects of portrait photography. Of course, it's easier when you're the subject to do that, but boy is it hard to trip that shutter sometimes....
I like that you went and did something you're supposed to avoid with portraits (wide angle up very close), it gives an interesting feel to things.
I liiiiiiiike it!!!! I so admire someone comfortable enough in their own skin to do self-portraits. You're my hero... and love that impish smile and sparkly eyes!
The angle of this makes her nose look elongated, and her chin as well. She has such pretty eyes, I'm betting she don't have that wonker of a nose. If it's supose to be funny then You hit the mark!
