A great asset for life consists in
being able to laugh not only about others, but also about oneself. Shooting
self-portraits is part of this training. But it can be embarassing to show
them!
Testing the batter
While not disclosed elsewhere on this
site, making pies, cookies and related bakery products is another hobby
of mine. Here you can see my 16 year old self, enjoying chocolate batter
residue after pushing the cake into the oven.
How many lightbulbs does it take...
...for making a self-portrait? Just
one, mirrored, if you have sun to light the scene. Otherwise, add another
to provide the light.
How many photographers it takes to change
that light bulb, is another matter.
Radioactive
I had barely enough hands for all
those microphones, operating my homemade radios. Those were times... just
pimples, and no beard yet!
I have not stopped shooting self-portraits.
But they have 20 years clearance time... So, for the time being,
you will only get to see me as a 16-year-old!
