People have asked me why I don't do too many self-portraits anymore...
there are alot of reasons. And they ask me why the ones that I have always cover part of my face....this, i guess is a security blanket.

So in order to break from the norm, here is a exposing self-portrait...no fancy clothes, makeup or props to hide behind...just me...flaws and all.

I'm sure you've heard it all before at this point in regards to this picture, Lorraine, but if you can stand one more ----

I really like the simplicity of this shot, and how nice it turned out should be a testament to how hard it is to make shots like this look good. It might seem easy, but I don't think it's ever simple to get one of these, but that could be me and my equipment. I also really like the duality that's going on here, where you are obviously vulnerable in your nakedness, but you seem so strong at the same time as well. As if one situation causes the other. It's awesome, and I really like this in your gallery. :rose:
