At least the ones where I visit most frequently don't show many selfies. Because we're all behind the camera.

I run rapidly past mirrors because I don't recognise the stranger who dwells in them...and I was always taught never to talk to strangers!! :)<br /><br />I hope 2016 treats you and yours kindly, Stewart.

Even before I read the part about the 2 sides and the public vs private I was thinking it. I cannot imagine a better capture to represent your own personal feelings and the prompt. Kudos to you on a job well done.geniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17475608100401444065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5613882486442283643.post-84498028210817690312016-01-04T03:28:12.463+11:002016-01-04T03:28:12.463+11:00aw...themesaw...themesAuthor R.

Bee on your shirt, birds in the curtains, nature books on the shelf. But, of course, we all knew that about you already. You look stern, perhaps an attempt to look neutral because I am guessing you are anything but stern ... with your gorgeous children and wife around, I would suppose that you normally wear a big smile. But a self-portrait it is and a handsome one at that. I may toddle over to check out this meme,it sounds interesting ... But I will skip the self portrait part if you don't mind:)Happy New Year to you and your family. I look forward to sharing another year of life with you ...<br /><br />Andrea @ From The SolAndrea @ From The Solhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00657271089899579261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5613882486442283643.post-36270658689457168292016-01-04T00:47:11.751+11:002016-01-04T00:47:11.751+11:00Happy New Year, Stewart.

And a great way to start the New Year!<br />I remember doing this type of portrait in photography class thirty years ago, except we used a board covered with aluminum foil to reflect the light (outdoor - sunlight).<br />Best wishes and many blessings to you and your family in the new year!<br />LeaLeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05201714466868118083noreply@blogger.com
