"Check it out, I'm not a Vampire!"

January 16th, 2013
Hi!

This is for fun, alright? ;-)

First off: This is in part homage to
(1) Shirley Jess' (reply @shirljess) "SELFIES" ( http://365project.org/discuss/general/15764/selfies)
and
(2) all the welcoming newbies threads ( http://365project.org/search/discussions?q=newbies)
and
(3) hollerin' out to the oldies ( http://365project.org/search/discussions?q=oldies), especially the "Newbie Sign-in and Oldies Sign-in too!"-thread ( http://365project.org/discuss/general/.../newbie-sign-in-and-oldies-sign-in-too),
all part of that which makes 365 such a wonderful community.

This thread is to make one point: Do not take yourself too seriously! Photography and 365 is about more than learning a craft and get better at it. It's also about community and enjoyment.

Requirements are as follows:
- Selfie in a reflection
- Daring to make a bit fun of yourself
- You have to be either a newbie or an oldie ;-p (Yeah, that means anyone...)

If you've never made a selfie before, you automatically get to pat your own shoulder. ;-)

I have one from Halloween. This is my Amy Whinehouse costume, reflected in a bathroom mirror where the normal lightbulbs were replaced with red ones. I like the effect. It is SOOC.

@lbjefferies So, I just scrolled through your project looking for your bean shot, but I couldn't find one! I did find a cool tilt-shift though. Well done. ;-)

Wow! I absolutely love the response to this, guys! I've been grinning and laughing my way down the thread. You got it, people! Nail, hammer, head. And so many fun ideas... ;-) I love that you have fun doing your projects! ;-D Keep it up!

Here's another mirror selfie... the title says it all.

January 17th, 2013
As I say in the description, I had one without the dome light showing and not so atilt, but my wife says it just didn't look FUN enough. And she's right.
