Self Portrait
A friend suggested that I join Flickr's 365 Days group which mandates that one posts a different self-portrait each day for one whole year. I thought about it, checked into it, and thought momentarily that I'd give it a whirl. Jim came into the room as I was photographing my feet, ankles, shoes, and hands so Jim asked what was possessing me. I showed him the site, with many hilarious as well as quite professional photos, but he just stared at me and left the room shaking his head. I think I lost his support. After more careful consideration, I think I'll delay my decision until clearer heads prevail. CDP keeps me busy enough!

365?? That sounds like a mission impossible. Jim might be right.
ReplyDeleteIt IS an interesting photo though.
I see you too prefer a white keyboard.
c'est tres a la mode les 365 autoportraits, pas facile d'etre orginal pendant un an. bonne chance
ReplyDeleteHaha! funny Kate! Great nails though!!
ReplyDeleteI'd need 365 different disguises.Yikes!
ReplyDeleteFor those of us who avoid mirrors, this might be a painful but transformational experience. I think I'll pass though I'll be interested in what you decide to do, Kate.
ReplyDeleteI think CDP is almost a full-time job in itself! I don't think I'd have time for the Flickr challenge. But a self-portrait a day series must be interesting to look back on a few years later or so.
ReplyDeleteI think your husband's reaction was rather restrained upon being told you were contemplating joining a computer site in which one posts 365 photos of body parts. I have not seen the site, but after feet and hands and toes, people might start running out of parts to show.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm on Brattcat on this one. I don't have very many body parts that are worthy of publication any longer.
ReplyDeleteHa! Jim could be right...OR he could be wrong. :) But 365 days of self portraits does sound like a LOT.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant portrait Kate! Another baby? ... my hands are full with just one! Have a happy weekend Kate.
ReplyDeleteYou given me a good laugh to start the day!
ReplyDeleteI could never take that one on! CDP keeps me busy enough.
ReplyDeleteUm, no. I like my semi-anonymity.
ReplyDeleteI'm inclined to agree with Jim. 365 days?
ReplyDeleteI was going to say "you brave woman you1" I have thought about starting a second blog but I just don't think I have it in me. Good start!
ReplyDeleteKate, your commentary made my day. So clever and funny! :-) Love the photo of your hand.
