This summer, for lack of other things to do, I often reverted to self-photography. The first one posted here is a bodyscape of sorts taken after I had accidentally given a private swimming lesson outside at noon in Texas without sunscreen -- I'm so Irish that 45 minutes in the sun almost made me blister. That explains the suit-lines on my back.
The second photograph is rather abstract and is a result of experimentation with tripods and timers. I timed my movement incorrectly and ended up with this interesting result.

The scene: It's early January, and I've just recently received a digital camera. Having never experimented with self-portraiture, I go into a room with a nice big mirror and try it out. Incidentally, this took place the same day as my shadow portraits. My verdict hasn't changed - self-portraiture is still fun.

Perhaps they are intruiging because you can portray yourself exactly the way you wish to be seen, or perhaps we enjoy them because we are all to some degree narcissistic. What follows are some self portraits of a somewhat unconventional nature.
