Self Portrait Tuesday


I found out about "Self Portrait Tuesday" from my friend Sarah. Obviously the goal is to take a self portrait and post it on your blog every Tuesday. Here is how the "Self Portait Tuesday" website outlines the experience:

"Self portrait tuesday is about self expression and exploration. The idea is each tuesday you post a self portrait on your blog, give a brief explanation of the picture - you may include your state of mind, what you were trying to do, technical information about the image etc."

Beyond that, I'm going to define my idea of "Self Portrait Tuesday" as I go:) I'm sure some will be fun, some will be boring, some creative, some pretty, and some unflattering.

For my first potrait I decided to take a picture of myself while sitting at my computer at home (since that is where all my "Self Portrait Tuesday" entries will be created). I usually have my hair in a normal ponytail (on the back of my head) when I'm working at the computer, but it isn't a very flattering look for me. So, I thought I'd give the side-pony a try for my portrait. It reminds me of the 80's, but I think it's doable...and the style is coming back.

You'll see my face again in 1 week. Bet you can hardly wait...
