This week's theme is a self-portrait. I have to say that this isn't my favourite topic but I did comply with the rules and tried to get a bit of a bokeh experience going on as well (in the second photo I mean).
This was my first thought:
 |
| f/3.5, 1/25, 1600ISO |
It felt a little like cheating, so I did do an entire head shot. That sort of reveal doesn't happen often, lol. Of course, I couldn't get a decent smile (and I swear I took 25 photos) so I'm afraid you're stuck with the smart alec smirk (suits me better anyway, I suppose). Sorry about your luck.

Are you noticing a trend in the ISO department? I have definitely developed a habit of forgetting to change my ISO setting. I am going to go set it to AUTO right now so I don't keep shooting at 1600ISO.
If you want to check out the other entries (for the last time,..sniff) or add your own photos, head on over:
 |
| f/3.5, 1/2, 1600ISO |
 |
| f/4.2, 1/15, 1600ISO |
 |
| f/4.5, 1/15, 1600ISO |

That's an awesome self portrait! Great job. It's hard to take photos of yourself, I always feel quite silly fake smiling into nothing but a camera. My best shots come when I pretend someone I love is standing right behind it~
Yer purty! :)
I hate when I forget to change the settings and I have a once in a lifetime shot and blow it. :/
Great photos! I love the eyes shot especially :) Isn't it hard to get a smiley picture?! I always struggle with that lol
I wish I knew about the 'ISO' and all that fancy photography stuff ;) I don't have a clue, and I'm not brave enough to play around with my simple little camera! Go you! :)
Cute self-portraits! You have beautiful blue eyes! My husband and I both have dark eyes, but our two boys have gorgeous blue eyes! :)
I've enjoyed following you through the photo challenge! I'm kinda sad it's over as well!
Terry! These are great shots! What purdy blue eyes you have, my dear!
It has been so fun following your "shots"!

Look at you, you little cutey patootie! Your blue eyes are just beautiful!
Your eyes are SO blue & the photo is just lovely. Bright & clear! I like a high ISO every now and then. Thanks for being a part of the journey!!
Well, I think you look lovely, smirk and all. :P
Love the smirky smile... You have been such a great support for me and my blog through this challenge... Thanks!

Georgeous blue eyes!!!!!! Thanks for all the tips chicky.... Now I really don't have to take that photo class!!
You're obnoxiously pretty.
So guess what? Last night I finally decided to look into this ISO crap and play with my new camera.
Um did you know that you can practically get night vision by opening up everything?! I mean, photos that would have been dim and boring look fabulous! I took some photos of my Christmas tree last night and they're so neat!
You look very pretty! Don't EVER be afraid to show your beautiful face! The spool knitting looks interesting too...reminds me of going to Supie in the park as a kid and everyone walking around with long wool circles trailing from our "corkers"! Merry Christmas to you & hubby! xo
