I am trying to set better goals for myself this year on getting better acquainted with my camera. I am going to try and take a picture of myself once a week. Each week is a different theme. This picture below was something I took because I wanted an updated picture to place on Facebook. It is a self portrait. It was a day I felt was "a good hair day" and gave it a go. I think it turned out well.
I am behind a week, therefore, there are two pictures in this post. Week two is reflection. I had many ideas for this one, but decided to snap a picture of the obvious. Reflections could be interpreted so many different ways. As you can tell by my expression, I was getting a little annoyed by my inability to get the right shot. This picture was not what I had in my minds eye for this shot, but here it is. It also shows my decision to go away from contacts and start wearing my glasses full time. I will be getting a new, updated pair soon!

I'm excited that you are joining in. :) that first shot is really great. I love the sunlight peeking in. :) oh and the second shot...yes...it can be frustrating to get it all lined up and in focus. I like you attempt.
did you link up on the lucas zoo blog? I hope so.
Thanks Corey. I am reminded that there is still so much to learn about taking pictures with DSLR! I am excited to see what kind of pictures we all come up with.
So glad you are joining. I have that same mirror thing at my house :) The first shot is great and you have nice catchlights. I like your look in the second one. Looking forward to seeing your new glasses and shots this year!
So glad you are joining us. I too am learning my new camera so we all in this learning together. Should be fun no matter what.
Welcome to 52 weeks of me. I love the perspective you got in your reflective shot. I find it hard to take a self portrait without the camera showing up. :)
Both shots are great, but I really love the mirror one. I like how it frames your face. I am so glad you decided to join in.
