I want to see....

A self portrait that sums you up the best as a person. Be it lonely, happy, crazy, stupid, funny, whatever! I want to see what self portrait you thinks best represents you!
I know this may be hard. But try, and if all else fails post your favourite self portrait! if you cant tell I'm obsessed with selfies, they are fascinating, I love seeing how people portray them selves! Good luck. Heres mine :) If you knew me personally you would know i spend most of my time with as little clothes on as possible, and you'd know I'm in love with my teeth. Hahahaha.

This is an old one, but one of my favorites...I love exploring and photo-walking. This was a fun day. :)

January 22nd, 2012

THIS DEFINITELY DESCRIBES ME

Happily married, DC girl. Who loves bright colors and was probably a clown in another life.

I am pretty allergic to selfies and I have a bad habit of getting nervous and going back and deleting them. I am BEHIND the camera for a reason.

I actually am okay with this one though. I think this is one of the first pictures of myself with a genuine smile on my face since I was a kid. As opposed to my normal hurry-up-and-take-the-fracking-picture already smile. :)

I don't like taking self-portraits, but I did do this one to mark my 29th birthday. Basically I was just trying to capture all the curls.

January 22nd, 2012
Not my favorite or the one that best describes me, but it does sum up that I love the fact that I get the right to vote and express myself just by being a citizen of my country.

I think this suites me, I love gum, and can be pretty awesome sometimes... wait... scratch that. I'm pretty awesome all the time :) haha just kidding!
January 22nd, 2012
mmmm I wonder if I actually have a photo of me..... Let me have a look... :)
January 22nd, 2012
Me and The Boy.
My fave picture ever taken of us together, I can't explain why, but it sums up our relationship :)
January 22nd, 2012
@ariananeala that is because it is an awesome photo. :) It is sensual but mysterious. the rim lighting is fantastic and the composition is great....

Can I also suggest you have a personal connection to the photo.
January 22nd, 2012
ok very hard as there's a part of me in each one but this conveys me the most in a positive way :)

I don't do many, usually only when I've not taken anything else on a particular day. But this one is good at summing me up as I love listening to music and I'm always on my iPhone. And I've worn that coat for 72 consecutive days now.

Took this on last week - the first one I got right!!!
January 22nd, 2012
This was hard! I decided to go with this one as it "kills more birds with one stone"
I like to take pictures, dress up and act silly (although I don't need to dress up to act silly), love "old stuff" and history. Wanted to be and actress when I was int my teens, and a illustrator for children's books....

I have shots that reveal a lot more of me physically but this has always been the one I like most. I like creating a character for the camera= much of my life involves assuming different persona. It's wacky.... yup, and my face is painted so I can be in full view but hidden.
January 22nd, 2012

Today I'm in a good mood and from all the selfies I have I'll choose this one:d.I'm skinny and mysterious:d
January 22nd, 2012
I'm new to the project and have only had one go at at selfie. It didn't turn out exactly as I had hoped.....me leaning oh so casually against the bench. I had a few more attempts, but was laughing so much in the end I decided to go with this one anyway. It sums me up, I love my dogs and they love me

a simple man who likes a cold beer, the eye drops cause i have googly eyes and the flower cause i like pretty things : )

I tortured myself by participating in last year´s selfie challenge despite being uncomfortable on the other side of the camera. I like this one most as I am a mere detail on this photo and not the main focus point :)

Here is one of mine. I don't have very many because I don't like selfies of myself. This one was done last summer during a 30 day challenge. It is a picture of me (which actually wasn't taken by me) displayed on my computer. The idea was to show yourself and 13 things. I chose 13 things (including my computer) that are "favorites" of things.

January 22nd, 2012
and this one I actually like better:
my left hand (prominately showing one of my crooked pinkies ... a trait passed to me by my father) with my wedding/engagement ring on the steering wheel of my van which I love and is the transportation for my children getting to their many activities so I spend A LOT of time in it.

Yep. Schizophrenic might be a great word to describe me. I have so many different interests that I wish there were more of me so I could enjoy more than one at a time.

January 23rd, 2012
I really like your selfies... when I read this thread I was thinking a lot about it but didn't find any really idea what picture might reflect me best... there're so many ways...
however I decided to show you one I took 5 years ago and uploaded it:
