What a fun narrative. You are so brave to try SPs this soon!

Hey Don you are going Ok. I need abotu 1 month before I decided to try a SP. When finally I did it, I`ve have just lot of fun while doing SP. And the entire week my mind thinking about what I going to do for the next SP. Keep shooting my friend!!

It gets easier to shot self-portraits, yeah right!
Nice shot and a very nice smile.
EMangl05-Nov-2004 15:36
better use the 4500 for such photos, easier :-)
Herb 05-Nov-2004 14:16
As long as you have fun, keep on shooting.

You hit the PAD workflow right on the nose. Most seem to see Friday as an SP day, a self portrait day. I tried for a while, but my camera kept breaking every time I got in front of it, so I stopped. Thanks for looking at my pix. See you on PAD.

One has to decide what is the most important : the subject or the photographer ?
You gave us both side in this pic.
You look great by the way ;)
