Self Portrait: An Early Attempt
I've been trying to take some occasional self portraits here and there. Not so much because I think I make an awesome photo model, I feel super self conscious and weird, but I think it's good practice, especially when I have to use my tripod.
This was taken in October/November, before I really knew anything about anything and was just playing around with the camera a lot. I want to use this to compare more recent and future shots.... looking away from the camera because looking right at the camera felt awkward and uncomfortable (though now I think "what the heck was I supposed to be looking at in this picture???? --real life answer: anything but the camera... because it's scary). Actually looking at the camera felt fine, but looking at the images of myself looking at the camera felt really awkward and uncomfortable. I still need to work on that.
