Self-portrait from a recent camping trip. Yeah, there’s flare (I’m shooting directly into the sun) that I unsuccessfully tried to block with the lid of a pan balanced on the camera lens (see the dark arch at the top of the photo?). It’s tricky to shoot self-portraits since you can’t see what you’re shooting when the shutter clicks!
Anyway, I probably am the only person in Oregon who brings Vogue Paris with me when camping. And the irony is that I was gritty dirty by this point– lots of dust at this campsite. So as I’m looking at photos of the most beautiful people in the world as they wear the cleanest, most beautiful clothing ever, there I am all covered in sweat and dust and grit from camping. Quite the juxtaposition!
Thanks for your patience as I was camping. More frequent blog updates coming!
