Ceci n'est pas moi.

I need to convince myself, deep down, that I'm not twenty any more. Taking photos is a sure fire way to do that. Taking photos of oneself is always a bit risky. Framing is never predictable and the outcome is more often than not disappointing for a whole number of reasons. While waiting for my computer to boot I snapped this and found the result to be bearable.

Of course, photos of oneself are important for a journal - just as are descriptions of where you are, what you're doing, and the people around you. To have no photos of oneself would leave a gaping hole in the picture being created.

But, of course, this is a photo. This is not me.
