My entry

I am assuming to get as close as possible one must :

1) Use a cell phone for the photo, Outdoors of course.

2) Take a self portrait, ensuring that the raised arm is shown clearly in the photo.

3) Remain at the verge of a scowl lol


Unfortunately it is raining today and the image results are not the best.
I should consider myself lucky that I did not break the cell phone camera when taking this shot.

That's terrible! You look nothing like him. ;)

I know, it is a lousy photo and pose. I can't even tell which is me anymore.
I guess I will need to post more photos and practice.

Great combo Carter. The best thing about posing for yourself is everyone stays away from you because they think you're absolutly nuts.

I have had people come up to me after I have taken a pic and asked what I was doing and why do I have the camera backwards. I usually don't answer and they walk away with their fears confirmed.

If only I hadn't shaved the beard.

Thanks, Douglas. The ascot was fortuitous. Tomorrow I must try a workshirt and vest. It's challenging to keep your sartorial leadership within arms reach. ;) :)

I usually try to do this when the neighbors aren't at home. It's the joggers and dog walkers that one must avoid at all costs.

Carter, your entries are killin' me. You're such a happy sort that in order to get that serious of an expression I imagine you have your other hand slammed in a car door or something. lol
