Yikes!  What was I thinking!

I ended up working from home today so I could ferry my daughter to school for her English regents at noon.  I assumed that would provide me with some extra time after work to explore with the camera.  My sad attempt was an epic fail due to a slight mist in the air.  I even spent 10 minutes trying to follow a little bird around the inside of our pine tree but he never stopped long enough for the camera to properly focus.

What to do for my project picture.  Do this, no, did it before.  How about this, no, seems too familiar.  How about a self portrait?  No way!  Just isn’t me.  I barely post pictures with me in them as it is but to do it on purpose…  no, I don’t think so.

Well, maybe if I try this pose where I’m staring down at the computer as if I’m struggling with a program.  OK, that happens every day so I know what it should look like.  How do I do it?  Point and shoot camera, small table top tripod and the simple timer…  OK, let’s do this before I chicken out…

The glare on the glasses is intentional.  I was hoping it would capture a little more of the screen but it is what it is.  Baby steps!  The next one will be better… hopefully!
