I thought I could use a new profile photo for Facebook and other locations on the web, so I played around with my Gorillapod the other day trying to take a flattering self portrait. Not an easy task as you get a bit "older". Anyway... I ended up liking this one. My daughter, whose opinion I normally value quite a bit, didn't like this version where I used the Holga-ish effect on Picnik. She thought it was too altered. But, hey, she's got twelve year-old skin! I unfortunately do not!Friday, February 13, 2009

I love the black and white with the vignette edges. That's a really classy effect.
