Project 365, Day 68, Self Portraits...Have a Cigar.
I'm not usually one for self portraits. I rather like taking pictures rather than being in them. (Though, I am a bit fond of the pictures my friends and family shoot of me shooting. Weird, huh?) Because of this, I tend not to do self portraits.
The picture where someone takes a picture of themselves in a mirror is so damned cliche. I just want to scream to those people: "Your camera has a fucking timer on it! Use it!"
The only reason I am shooting a self portrait today is because I have a great idea for a shot and I need the practice before I actually undertake the project.
Now...before you scream "Photoshopped!" at the top of you lungs, just thank whatever deity you pray to that I haven't learned how to clone myself. I figure THAT one out, I'm taking over the planet....just sayin'. Of course it's Photoshopped.
This confused the hell out of the dogs (mostly Sera), running back and forth to the camera and posing.
After looking at this picture (and shivering at the thought of multiple copies of me and my pooping pooch running around) you are probably wondering what I have in mind for the project I mentioned.
Ain't telling.
It's going include a special guest star and he's packing up for a trip, so it'll have to wait until he gets back.
As an aside....Sera started humping my leg in the last picture just before the timer went off. I got her off just in time. Wouldn't THAT have been an interesting shot?
