in a purple haze

This is my first real selfie so I've given it the treatment. Usually my selfies are reflections in a mirror or are taken by Ray, what I call a 'non-selfie selfie'.

This time I held the camera but I I did have to ask Ray to jump up and down/pull funny faces behind the camera to make me laugh.....

I took the shot of my purple scarf (a gift from my Auntie Betty) in the car en route today to Gunwharf Quays at Portsmouth and I took the shot of me under a tree where we parked the car on arrival.

Great selfie, it reminds me of the poem "when I am old I shall wear Purple", not that I am suggesting that you are old!!! its one of my favourite poems and I intend to grow old disgracefully.
