Inspiration Board Tuesday: Self Portraits

Written by: Tiffany Joyce

We’ll be getting back to our Vignette posts on Wednesday but for today I give you Photo Challenge #10 – the Self Portrait.  

I think everyone has at one point taken a shot of themselves.  Either in the mirror or by holding the camera akwardly as far away from your face as possible.  A good self portrait is a difficult task.  So this week that is my challenge to you.  Take a shot of yourself.  Maybe you’ll take a shot of your reflection – maybe you’ll hold the camera far away – or maybe you’ll intentionally take the shot with camera at the ready.

Can you be comfortable behind the camera if you’re not comfortable in front of the camera?  Upload your self portrait to our Flickr Group and we’ll pull out a set of lessons learned from your postings this week.
