If you are not stout of heart and of strong mind you may wish to miss reading this post!
As I explained a couple of weeks ago I needed a photo of my self for my web site, blog posts etc. and as I haven’t got any descent ones I decided I ought to go and get one taken. The problem is I hate photos of myself, I’m sure I don’t look good in them, I much prefer to appear as a big silvery blue dragon. But as I really can’t hide as a dragon forever here are a few of the results! (some of the better ones!!)
I like this one best as an author photo even though it’s black and white
I think any of these three could work as well đŸ™‚
Having some spare means I won’t have to get in front of that camera again for a while, for which I am grateful!

/ June 14, 2012Lindsey – it’s you! They’re all great pictures and I agree with you about the black and white one. Monochrome somehow has greater clarity than colour. Well done on taking the step to reveal the real you. đŸ˜€

/ June 14, 2012Thanks Kate, It was a bit scary, but I’ve done it now!!

/ June 14, 2012I agree, Lindsey, I love the black and white one! And if it makes you feel any better, I dislike pictures of myself, too. I think my rose picture suits me just fine, or the drawing Hazel did for me. If only I could get away with using that instead of a regular photo… đŸ˜€

/ June 14, 2012Lovely honey! I think you look fab, sweetie…but I agree for serious author stuff, I’d go with the black and white one! đŸ˜€ xx

/ June 15, 2012Excellent job. They are all great! Although the dragon is cool, that dragon has nothing over you. You look great. đŸ™‚

/ July 17, 2012Happened upon your site via a contest. So…after reading a few of the posts and articles, I am now a new fan! I picked this to comment on because of common ground. PHOTOS…eekk đŸ™‚ But I must say, you pulled it off marvelously! You, my new friend are braver than I. And that stands for a lot đŸ™‚
I will be dropping by more often!
