My first self-portrait with my new digital camera. Abandon hope, all ye who click on this...

[Aristus]

Ugh! A warts and all pic of me. Unshaven, hair a mess, face only a mother could love. Enjoy!

[datasuspect]

1. you have an honest face

very open and friendly looking.

[Aristus]

2. Thank you.

Malcolm McDowell looks like he's having a really bad day, there. B-)

[datasuspect]

3. that sigpic kinda did it for me this morning

i get more and more confused every day.

[Cabcere]

4. Well, hello!

:hi: I think you look nice - like you'd be a great person to hang out with. :hug: Also I think you have very nice eyes... :blush: :loveya:

[Aristus]

5. Thank you.

:blush:

If you want to hang out, why not take a look at my journal. It contains elements of my daily feature in the Lounge, William Shakespeare's Thought For The Day. I've posted WSTFTD off and on for about eighteen months now. Shows how I feel about right wingers and odious news-makers, and how I express myself through William Shakespeare's words.

BTW, that's part of my home library in the background of the pic.

6. I think you look

very nice and normal. Friendly.

I don't see any warts.

8. Hey, babe!

:hi:

Thank you. I'm just having fun with my new camera. Wow, I've got a great new computer, an iPod, a digital camera. I've really joined the digital age, haven't I?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. You really have joined it, big time!

Digital pics are sooooooo much fun!

No more wondering if you have enough film for your excursion!

Or worrying about how the airport xrays will/might damage your precious travel pics!

Thank you for sharing...
I recall the first photo I took of myself...set timer, ran into position with only 10 seconds to look 'normal'.....what a weird feeling!
You look perfectly natural....and normal!
