I'm taking a photography composition class and our assignment this week is to document our daily lives. Realizing that making photos is an important part of my routine, I decided to start with this image. I took this in the mirror and then flipped it horizontally to correct the lettering on the lens. I'm not sure this will be my final one....I think I can do better, but this was the best of the group I took today. I can already tell that I'm thinking about composition as I rejected shots where my rings or watch were distracting or where my neck strap got in the way. I don't think I would have noticed this before our class last night. Also, I wanted enough of me in the picture to be identifiable, but I wanted the subject to the be camera, not me. Maybe the title should be "Camera Portrait" and not Self Portrait....hmmmmm..
