Self portrait

Thanks for all your comments and advice yesterday on taking portraits. Chatting and putting someone at ease, whilst also concentrating on what I am doing with the camera will be a considerable challenge for me! Hence, stemma/shameless's advice is probably a better short-term fix. Not sure if they meant the alcohol was to be consumed by photographer or subject though?!

Meanwhile, there was a brilliant light coming through the lounge window this morning, and nobody else in the house, so back to the easy stuff for today :)

This one is pretty much as it came off the camera; just desaturated a little. There are more on the flickr.
