Today I have spent the entire day tidying and de-cluttering ready for Christmas day.

Needing to unwind and not in the mood for the pub, I decided to have a nice relaxing photoshop editing session.

I remember taking this shot very well, she had the most amazing smile as I was focusing, but it had turned into this scowl by the time I pushed the shutter. Then she shouts "There's a bee in here mum".

After far far too long procrastinating, I had enough work that I was happy with to the submit this module.

I received an 8/10 for it this morning, which was one hell of a shock. I was expecting a very low mark or a fail.

100 faces - update

I have posted my first installment of my new project, which has it's own blog.

The Joy of Self Portraits

The Joy of Self Portraits, a photo by BeccaG on Flickr.

If I could pin-point one single thing I don't like taking photos of it wouldn't be difficult. Saying that, I'd still rather shoot a self portrait than a wedding.

If you ever hear that I've shot a wedding then you can assume 1 of 3 things:

1: Extreme poverty, (and I mean extreme).
2: Mid-life crisis.
3: Insanity.

If it's 2 or 3, then perhaps a calm gentle word in my ear will set me back on the straight and narrow again. If, not then a trip to a shrink.

100 faces

100 faces is a new photography project of mine. The intention is to photograph '100 faces, of friends or strangers.

Still deciding if this is going to be film only, digital only, or a mixture of the 2. What the end result of this will be I am still not sure, book, blog or something.



Anyway.



The whole point is to kick me up the butt and get some portraiture happening.

If anyone is vaguely interested in sitting for me, then please let me know, of course if you're local to me then that helps. If not, then it'll have to wait till our paths cross.

{UPDATE} I'm still fleshing out this idea, however I am starting a separate blog for it.

Grrrrrrrr, still not happy with any of the portraits taken so far. So much for getting this finished.

Anyhow, this photo here is really old and was taken on a 3.2mp P&S.
