And in the Aw, What The Hell category...

Not long ago, I challenged ravurian to get a photograph of himself at his most fabulous, and I said I would do the same. While we wait for Mr. R...






I don't know whether this is the most flattering picture, but I liked it the best of all the ten zillion I took trying to get something I could bear. I think it speaks the most truth about me.

Honestly, I wouldn't have posted these three weeks ago. Things are converging, and I'm growing down into my real, actual, 55-year-old self, so I figure I might as well show my face around here.

The first one is perhaps the prettier of the two, but the second one is my favourite because you look so happy! Both of them are good photographs of an attractive lady though.

Thank you very much! I look at that second one and I see my true self. I can't remember the last time that happened in a photograph.

I think I know what you mean - they say the cameras doesn't lie, but it can't always show the whole truth either...

Well said.
