Daily Jake's 365 Challenge

The processing works well with this and I love all those sparks! :)
 
Excellent, I ws using my grinding wheel the other day and thought I must use it as a photo one day :) Think I'll need a helper for it though as I'm not sure I could grind and shoot at the same time :)
 
Day 66


66/365 by JRTurnerPhotography, on Flickr

It's been a couple of months, so I decided on another self portrait after being hooked up by my barber today. Something I really hate. I went for a mirror shot, so it's not technically perfect.

Wow, you look so different sans woolly hat, glasses and hoody! :D It's like you're coming out of hibernation! :lol:

Very nice new haircut as well!

You still haven't invested in a black sheet, I see! :p

I've been meaning to do another SP, and I thought after my haircut was a good time! :lol: I wish I could hibernate!

Thanks Sam :)

No I haven't! I'm saving for New York (38 Days) :lol:

When are you doing a SP anyway? :naughty:

Only 38 days now? Before you are a proper grown-up? :lol::lol:

I actually have a SP of me and Mark in Scotland and if you ask very nicely, I might let you see it!! :p Other than that, I DO NOT DO SP!!!! :lol:

Nope! I'm not actually 21 until the 14th of July (put that in your diary ;)) it was just cheaper to go in April than July!

Pleaseeeeee let me see it Auntie Sam? :lol:

Very brave doing a SP, I'm a coward. WOW a grown up in July, but don't worry, there are no rules saying you have to act like one though, or none that I've ever found. :)

I blocked most of my face with the camera - smart thinking :lol:
I'm not planning on growing up! Makes no difference over here though - just means I can hire cars on holiday and get drunk in the US of A!

Since you asked so politely, little Jakey, I will post it for you. I need to explain first, though, that the reason I look a teeny bit fat is because I had multiple layers of clothing on to fend off the harsh Northern environment and Winter atmosphere, I also apologise for thye shoddy make-up, but I never thought I'd be posting this one.



Are you ready?





For Jake, from Auntie Sam by ~sammi~, on Flickr

I'm the one on the left!! :)
 
I'd love to say I'm impressed with you're obviously hilarious sense of humour... but I'm not ;) :lol::lol:
All I have running through my head is the shadow of Peter Pan, with a mind of it's own escaping from him! :lol:

Oi, I went to a lot of trouble for you there, young man...had to upload a dodgy pic to Flickr for all and sundry to see, for a start.

Younger generation.....so damned ungrateful, but at least i can go to NY tomorrow and DRINK ALCOHOL if I want to! Legally! :p
 
Sam, you are such a spoil sport!
Good sp Jake, I dont think I ever had as much hair as that, now I have none:shake:

Ah, are you attending the meet at the Arboretum? I'll bring a spare for you just in case! At least you'll get cheaper admittance! :lol:

Can we claim you as my carer? you might get cheaper admittance as well in that case!

I'll be sure to bring my oxygen, cod liver oil and sheepskin boots with me since otherwise I might just perish from old age! :D

I'll also bring my old man and his slipper so he can keep you in line! ;)

What a bloody good idea! Care in the community and all that :lol:

Don't worry, I'm no where near this cheeky in person, I'm shy and quiet :bonk:
 
Nice haircut Jake - but you ought to do a proper SP ;)

Nice cute shot of the mouse, and good on you for doing the humane thing and letting go in the field :thumbs:

Great shot for Day 65, nice processing too, nice selfie too fella....lol...so that's what hair looks like ;)
 
Quiet and shy in person?..... Is that because you'd be scared of us oldies lol?!!!!
 
Some nice shots there, but day 58 is a really good shot. Very nicely exposed and processed.

It seems hair is something a lot of 365ers are missing!
I caught another mouse on friday, and took her to the same spot.
