Late and not-so-honest picture meme

I won't even pretend it's the first picture I took, but it's definitely one of the first that was in-focus, and amazingly, I was even *in* the stupid thing. I was trying to get a picture showing how the beret fit for Ravelry (link will only work if you're a member), and when I finally succeeded, decided to -- well, not exactly jump on the band-wagon, but at least hobble in its wake. To mix metaphors a bit.

Beret on head

The apparent crankiness is only concentration... Or possibly despair.

Hiya sweetie! *waves*

*waves back* Hi yourself!

You can verify the fact that I don't always look cranky, can't you? Uh, can't you?!

Of course - but only if you'll also allow me to verify that [livejournal.com profile] sartorias is right on the money.

I think it looks like a carefully composed picture, not one where you're lucky you made it into the frame :)

The (lovely) beret and serious expression make it look like a portrait of an artist :)

Well, it is a carefully composed picture, in that I had to keep looking in bemusement at the shots of an empty mirror and trying different angles. :)

Thank you!

Wow, you are beautiful. Why didn't I know that? Wow.

That's a lovely thing to say, but anything but the case! (Really enjoyed the first 5 chapts btw, and writing the comments up now.)

I don't know what I expected, but you don't look at all what I expected. Younger, and more lovely. How wonderful :)

Why thank you! The powers of fuzzy photography, I guess. :)

It is odd, that experience of not having any kind of expectations until you see something and realise that there must have been some negative-space kind of expectation... (Yes, I'll go drink more tea now.)
