I can't believe its the last day already!
Thank you so much Sharon and Meg for running this! I started the month really not wanting to do it, hating photos of myself but feeling I should give it a go...and I've loved it! :)
Heres my last one for now - http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=245511

Here is mine (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=245514&nocache=1) where I am joined by my not reluctant DH. This was straight after the scary movie DVD.
Sharon, it's been like a fairground ride and I wouldn't have missed it. Only restrictions on my time prevent me from continuing. Good luck with your remaining part of your 365! I SHALL BE BACK now and then so don't go away, y'all hear?

I just want to apologize for dropping out on your girls. I made it to Valentine's Day and then my world went crazy. : ) I had my son's 3rd birthday and my Once a month cooking weekend and a trip out of town and before I knew it I was a week behind and knew I could never catch up. I really enjoyed the first half of the month. Congrats to those of you who went all the way! : )

I just had to tell everyone, WTG! You are all so amazing. I really wanted to do this one with you, but I just had too much on my plate and I was going crazy. :D But I have really enjoyed watching what you have all done and hopefully one of these days, when I have time I can use all of your good ideas.

This has been so much fun! I don't think I have ever used my tripod this much. Here is my last day...it took a couple of tries to get the timing right. Leap day!

Now that we all know how to include ourselves in famly photos, please do so. There are 8 years when we don't have a single photo of my Mom because she was always the family photographer!

I did a leaping montage for Leap Year: http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=245603

I missed a few days this week as I was sick, but I am so very proud and excited by my Gallery of Me and the ENTIRE SPAD gallery!!! You all were so enthusiastic and brave!! Thank you, Sharon, for proposing and carrying out this idea. I've never seen the gallery filled with such fun and personal photography. AWESOME, all of you!

Now, on to March!!

I can't believe I made it! This has been so much fun. I feel like I have new friends and I know we'll be watching for each other's photos in the future. You have all been such good sports through the month. Thank you to Sharon and Meg for sponsoring this. It was great.

Here's Day 29 (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=245649&ppuser=41276).

Here's mine: Lazy Day (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=245670)
I didn't get the whole month, but I did get 20 self-portraits posted! Not bad considering the number of communicable illnesses I came down with this month!! :lol: This challenge had been loads of fun!

Here's one who didn't make it through the whole month, started late finished early - but I did have fun nevertheless, now to scrap some of those photos before I cut them up into a million pieces :yahoo:

Thanks for a great challenge Sharon - what's on the menu for March?

Well I do have an idea for March - but it will have to wait until I have caught up in the gallery. I don't want to miss any of those cool photos. Thanks so much for your kind words. We weren't sure what the reaction would be and to say that it has blown us away is an understatement! I hope some of those great photos make it into layouts that we can all admire. And remember, you can continue to post self portraits in the gallery - doesn't have to be a daily thing but if you want to continue (or join in!) that would be cool. Thanks again for making this challenge such fun :)

I was going through the fabulous self portrait gallery and just started kind of summarizing the categories of self portraits. Here's what I came up with.

• Artistic filters or effects
• Baby photo and current photo together (hold a framed photo of baby, split faces, extract baby or yourself
• Body parts
• Cloning - many of you in the same. Tutorial: http://www.mrmalique.com/index.php/tutorial-how-to-create-your-own-clones/
• Different locations – at work, shopping, vacation, in a vehicle
• Doing some daily activities
• Environmental - yard, kitchen, etc.
• Formal portrait
• Holding your camera looking into a mirror
• In a scene like framed on the wall, in a computer screen, in an art gallery. For example, http://www.dumpr.net
• Laying in bed or on the floor
• Lighting effects, candles, bounced flash, firelight
• Looking through or into something (for example, rolled tube or camera inside the refrigerator)
• Modified to be humorous
• Of course, at your computer
• Photo with or doing hobbies
• Posed Action
• Reflection in mirror, window, appliances, etc.
• Selective coloring, black and white or sepia
• Shadows & shadow doing something different than you are
• Silhouette in door or window
• Softening brightening filters. Virtual Photographer is a favorite. http://www.optikvervelabs.com/
• Spin chair
• Sunrise or Sunset with you in it
• You in photo with family, friends, pets

I hope you are feeling better Amclose. We all seemed to find ourselves under the weather this month.

Me, I somehow remembered to get a photo, do a LO and post it everyday, but, I rarely remembered to post ithere in this thread. Well, I am proud of myself anyway.

Thanks, I was just DEAD sick with the flu both Saturday and Sunday, stayed home from work Monday and Tuesday, and just got back to work today. I'm feeling so much better than I did over the weekend but still pretty cruddy. If only I had a backup! :)
