PORTRAITS / SELF PORTRAITS....Digital or Film

A couple of oldies, with my Canon G3. The swiveling screen was great for self portraits; don´t know why I don´t do it with my new G1...

Same to you, Helen! Would have been nice to see you over that glass of Danish beer....

The orange one was shot at midnight in my garden, lit only from a window.

Pippi Långstrump (she´s Swedish, you know....) says hello, too. Don´t know if you really look like her, but there´s a resemblance with her author, Astrid Lindgren, in her younger years! Something to be proud of! :salute:

Helen, in that first shot you look like a bit of trouble, and in the third, like a bit of heaven. Nice!

I very rarely do portraits. Not because I don't like it, but I just don't spend enough time around people! I figure my avatar is plenty enough of me for people to have to put up with, so here's a portrait from over a year ago of my friend Jon.

While I do shoot portraits, I am very rarely on the side of the camera where I get into the picture. I feel I am doing folks a favor there :ROTFL:

But in the spirit of things, I dug out an old self-portrait done years ago when I first got a 1DsMkII and wanted to test it out. Not remotely close to what some others have posted, but this is what I got. Besides, this is the way most folks see me anyway.

Well, Helen, you had me hooked from the very beginning with your first shot with a Contax G1.

This was shot with a Contax G1 with a 35mm lens. The film was TMax 3200, hence the pronounced grain. This was shot in a hotel room while on the road, after a long, long day of shooting. I know it is a mirror shot but I really hate having my picture made. :cool:

Spring of 2003. Death Valley. Unbearable heat (it must have been at least 85 degrees). Only the Spam in my fanny pack kept me alive and here today to tell this tale.

P.S. My thanks to Mister Whitekeys for the inspiration to take this photo.
