16th May Mowing the lawn

Topic of the Day - Mowing the Lawn 136/365

This is the best of a bad lot - I hate doing selfies!!! Anyway I had to mow the lawn today before the rain comes back so I thought I would have a go. Maybe one day I will be able to pose and not feel an idiot!! Finlay was watching me and I am sure he was laughing!!
You are so brave

Great selfie, not an idiot at all :)

I'm impressed, I haven't done a selfie like this one, my only one was shooting into a mirror.

You didn't have to start this machine with that pull cord! Easy peasy and you would love how it turned out! It's a great photo!
May 16th, 2013  
Swet selfie!
May 16th, 2013  
I think this is a great selfie. Sometimes the posed ones look altogether too posed!
May 16th, 2013  
Yup! I need to mow my lawns too. Great idea for a selfie though.
May 16th, 2013  
You are a lot braver than me, well done!

@swilde @anazad511 @tara11 @maggiemae @httpgeffed @salza @steampowered @kjarn Many thanks to you all for your lovely comments!! You are all too kind!!

I think we are all our worse critics! I think you are beautiful and I love how your clothing matches the mower which blends well with the yard. It all ties in together! Brilliant!
May 16th, 2013  
You must not be so hard on yourself. A beautiful shot, and like Michelle said, everything looks so wonderful together. You found the perfect spot in the yard to shoot the picture. Great job.

Sometimes easier when you have a friend (like a lawnmower) with you. I think this looks like a natural shot and you look like you are enjoying your mowing session!

@smellychelli @yonnie @lucypics How kind you all are!! Thank you for your lovely comments - you are all so supportive!! I did the selfie today as I have lost half a stone in the last two weeks. So this is a kind of "before" picture. I have a long way to go in my new "healthy eating" project but I think if I challenge myself to put up a new selfie at every 7 lbs that will be an incentive for me. Anyway thank you again for being so nice!!

Nice selfie - can you do my lawn when you're done?! The grass is starting to grow so fast now.
May 16th, 2013  
A very nice and unusual selfie - and you are beautifully colour co-ordinated with the mower and the forget-me-nots.
May 16th, 2013  
You look like you hate doing it as much as me

Jo
This is a great set up and selfie, you nailed it well done.
May 16th, 2013  
That's come out really well - and you have a lovely garden.
May 16th, 2013  
Wonderful selfie!

@janpenny @quietpurplehaze @phillchilton @jo13 @mercuria @bizziebeeme Thank you all so much for your lovely comments!! Luckily Its a smallish lawn with very patchy grass so it doesn't take too long to do!! I am trying to repair my garden from the assault of Finlay the puppy last year!! I only allow him onto the actual garden on a lead now as he digs holes and digs up any plants I put in!! Very naughty dog!!
May 16th, 2013  
Beautiful----but wwwwwhhhhhhyyyyy did u cut the grass??-I love to shoot weeds,hA!! :)
May 16th, 2013  
Nice selfie and yard!
May 16th, 2013  
Very nice selfie ..... We are our own worst critic's :)
May 16th, 2013  
It looks perfectly natural, a lovely shot.
May 16th, 2013  
I'm with everyone else, this is a great selfie and congratulations on loosing 7lbs...a great achievement :)

@jodimuli @danette @willowdragon @busylady @pixiemac Many thanks to you all for your lovely comments!! You are all very kind!!
@pixiemac Thanks Sarah - I appreciate that - its been hard this week - boredom in the evenings is my big problem!!
May 16th, 2013  
My hubby is trying to loose weight too and it is just too easy to nibble in the evening unless I keep all yummy stuff hidden!
May 16th, 2013  
@pixiemac LOL!! I can't hide the yummy stuff cause I will know where it is!! No hope for me!!
May 16th, 2013  
Looks great, Pam. Very nice selfie. I'm always uncomfortable with taking selfies of myself.
May 17th, 2013  
cool, take a look of my project :)
May 17th, 2013  
great capture
May 17th, 2013  
@mittens @jus15 @demmie many thanks for your great comments!
May 17th, 2013  
Wonderful selfie, always good to see someone hard at work.
May 17th, 2013  
@sansjuan thanks Nita! It happens so rarely I thought I had better capture it! Lol!
May 17th, 2013  
A nice selfie there! Love your setting, that garden is beautiful :)
May 17th, 2013  
Everything is so colour coordinated!!
May 17th, 2013  
@kazlamont @onie Many thanks for your lovely comments!!
May 17th, 2013  
I love the idea of a selfie for each 7lb milestone - it'll be a great series - that, of course, is as long as it's someone else's selfie! I have a pathological fear of the lens side of the camera - (my story - sticking to it!).
May 17th, 2013  
@kittikat LOL!! You can't be as bad as me!!
May 17th, 2013  
Pam - by the time you find a selfie of me (without the camera over my face) - you'll have lost a lot more than another 7lb! @pamknowler
May 17th, 2013  
Great selfie!!
May 17th, 2013  
@carolmw Many thanks Carol!!
May 17th, 2013  
Agree, great selfie ! nothing strange about it...but I understand your feelings..I'm not doing a selfie (yet)
May 17th, 2013  
@sjouk Many thanks Sjouk!! I thought it was just me who didn't like doing selfies!!
May 17th, 2013
