Me, in blue
Time for a new flickr icon ;-)
I don't usually upload self-portraits, but I think I like this one. No guarantee it'll stay up though...

Hey I like it. We can actually see your eyes! The last few have been in the dark abit!!! :) Hi!
I like it too - nice portrait. I like the blue toning.
I really must have another try at self-portraits myself. My last ones were ghastly though and didn't make it to flickr ;-)
Quite intentional Alison ;-) I much prefer to be behind the camera. However, I felt it was time for a new icon and since the shot turned out so well, I figured I might as well upload it.
I didn't even frame this one David, just held the camera out at arms length and hoped it was pointing in the right direction ;-)
The blue toning was done "in-camera", it's one of the monochrome modes.
You've done proud mate, good on you,
(I did thje same thing with a pic the daughter snapped of me over a game of baggamon
Thanks Kev :)
Let it stay, let it stay, let it stay. Christmas is near after all, David, so be a little generous. It's a nice self-portrait and you even got a nice DOF.:o)
haha Margot. I looked at it this morning and thought "Why did I post that?" still don't know.
I like the new look Icon David. Very pensive.
Wonderful portrait David!!

Seen on your photo stream. (?)
Thanks Alex, pensive is a good description. :)
Thanks Jill - it's definitely different being on the other side of the camera, but at least I took it so I only have myself to blame. ;-)
You look like you're a million miles away, staring into the distance.

Trying not to look too much like a posed shot I'm afraid, which is kinda difficult when you have one arm out steadying the camera. ;-)
Work with me here, Dave.
What you meant to say is that you were deeply engrossed in quantum physics at the time, hence the disconnected stare.
J.
Oh yeah.. ummm, I was working out the final details of my Nobel Prize submission... ;-)
It is blue, but it is welcome to our thread :) I really like this portrait - it works: the expression is soft, yet there is this "disconnected state" as stated by Xenedis :P
hope you keep this as your icon, at least for a while :)
Nice to meet you :)
Thanks for sharing this photo in Black&White Self-Portrait with the 24 Hour Thread.
The World Through My Eyes
Yeah it's more blue&white, rather than black&white, but still monochromatic :)
I don't take that many self-portraits, so this is about it for now.
It's a neat thread btw, handy to put faces to people :)
