fiftytwo self-portraits - come join me!

[mseigafuse]

I just joined too. I have a ton to learn about portraiture in general and don't generally like pictures of myself. Hopefully doing this for a year will improve my skill and make me more comfortable on the other side of the camera.

i joined! i am always looking for excuses to pick up my camera, especially when it seems like there is no time in the day to do so. i'm hoping this will force me to take shots on days when i wouldn't otherwise try to squeeze any in.

I joined... now I just have to take a picture of myself. (my attempt this morning ended up with my face not being in focus or my head chopped off, and got cut short by the dog sitting there and falling asleep)

That's what I'm hoping for - I definitely need practice! That and it should be fun so I'm in!

I'm in.
I hate pics of me so this will force me to learn to FLY (Finally Love Yourself).
I'm learning so who better to mess up a shot with
Seeing me soon~ DB

Yay! I love this. Only 4 weeks into it and still excited. Keep joining us everyone!

I never officially declared myself. LOL! But I'm in, for better or worse. Actually, I've only completed two weeks but It is already getting easier for me to be in front of the camera. Well, actually in front then run behind, in front, run behind...
I'm actually looking forward to my next shot. I hope I can keep this enthusiasm up all year!
