OptimusBri's self portrait 365

aye. 70 is very diffent from the rest, but very inventive. How did you get shutter to fire? :D
 
I really thought you were in there :D Was hoping to see more shots of you in the bag in different locations.

Clever idea and the arm and bag look great. Not so sure about the texture/border, but it's something very different and I like a lot :thumbs:
 
Thanks Darren :)

Fantastic (as always) Briony, I like the catchlights in your eyes.
Your 365 is very creative:)
Just one thing though, in this latest image do you have the one showing the back of your head on a similar scale/level to your image facing the camera? IYSWIM??
 
2 contrasting shots there.. the bag one is very scary, like it.. PP is fab too..

love the colours on 70, lovely soft feel but nice and sharp where needed, your eyes look fabulous, like the bow as it is, nice one briony
 
More stunning shots, Briony. :)
 
todays is a really beautiful image bri...
 
Very dreamy image for #72. Not quite sure about the pose, perhaps laying on your side in the foetal position would look less awkward and uncomfortable. I am liking what you've been doing with your processing. Keep it up :thumbs:

I had more important things to do today than take photos, so this was a bit rushed.

lol, know the feeling! i used an old shot today ;)

nice effort, despite being rushed...
 
Just catching up on people's 365's. Some really creative shots here, I'm especially liking day 65 and 70.
 
Briony, some really simply wonderful photos. My 365 could turn into a selfie one over night, though not on purpose!! Was a brilliant idea, wish I had found this far earlier. Havn't scouted the forum for a long while, been hard enough just updating my own 365 recently.
Ruddy good stuff here though, keep it going!! *subscribes*

There's one more photo in the comments on my Flickr, and I may post a couple more later.

This was taken in Abbey Park in Leicester this morning. It was really sunny (very windy though!) outside so I thought I'd take the opportunity to do my self portrait while I could, as well as getting tons of photos for my University work, which I need to edit now. I timed all this pretty well, as the sun has gone in, there are lots of clouds and it looks as though it's going to rain now!!

all good.. great processing and dreamy feel on 72 but not sure of the pose, agree with darren's suggestion..

dont know how you fit the time in to come up with these great shots briony!
 
Briony another absolutely ace image. Nothing wrong with this at all... and I completely agree it looks even better large! You look young and very pretty in this image too!

Also very nice use of black and white! :thumbs:

Hey, You create the images... I'm just saying what I think when I look at the them! :D But they are all bloody brilliant!
 
a very nice set of images lately Briony, i particularly like the colours of 71 the deep red and pinks, 72 has a dream like feeling and your pose is very Fetal.
 
Hi Briony - not dropped in to the thread for a few weeks but delighted to see that you have managed to maintain such a high standard of self portraits - both in quality of individual shots and in variety - what an achievement!

Phil
 
there are some really great photos in here, very different and creative. Great work!!
 
Great, my favourites are 71 & 75. 71 is like a fashion shoot, reminds me of something..can't think what:bang:.
Really cool. ;)
 
Thou art a splendid photographer, Briony. Yours is my favourite project this year.
