Default Self Portraits Album

After a little flurry of self portraits before Christmas, and the Leona's just today, I went ahead and started a DPS Users Self Portrait album group.

There is apparently a 60 pic limit on albums, so only one each please - give it your "best shot"!

EDIT: It was actually a group I needed to set up, not an album. So here is the SP Group.

ps. If you post in the album group, please note it here as well, both to encourage others and so that we can go look!

Great idea for a group Jim. I took the plunge and uploaded my SP the first time I have shown myself.

Here is a copy-best viewed in thumbnail size, lol.

Nonsense! Lovely SP, great colouring and lighting. Very pretty.

Glad you liked the idea. Thanks for joining in, we'll get the ball rolling now.

Thanks Jim, it took a lot of courage but I'm pleased I did it.

What a rig-marole in trying to upload a picture. Think I managed to upload one to the group, but just incase it didnt work, here is my SP which was taken last year.... not game enough to do another just yet....

Crikey Steve, what a striking shot. You should be in front of the camera more often.

Shelly, thanks for being brave. Didn't hurt a bit, did it?

All right Jim, I'll jump in. I had trouble uploading a photo to the group as well so will post it here. I can't seem to get a picture of me smiling for some reason.

This one was about 3 different beards ago so I look different now, will try to do another self portrait now that the idea has been planted.
