Self Portrait a Day for the Month of Feb 2010

Lets all have some fun and get to know each other a little better while were at it!

Two years ago we had a self portrait a day challenge going for the month of February because we never have any pictures of ourselves. February, being the shortest month of the year makes long enough to have a ton of fun but short enough not to feel burdened by the challenge.


So the challenge goes like this, simply take a picture of yourself everyday of the month, or try to anyway. If you miss a day, don't worry. If you only have a chance to get a few in for the whole month, that's fine too. Get creative as you want to with the picture but it MUST include some part of you in the image even if it is just your toes clad in some way cool socks.

Here are some samples from two years ago.



































Now, two years ago, this challenge even brought out a few husbands to share a portrait or two.



Yes, this one belongs to me...he was getting ready to go out an plow the driveway and the lane.

Who knows...you may even find yourself with a brand new avatar out of this challenge.



You must admit that this is a classic. And no it is not me!

So join us for some fun and get to know each other a bit more.

Here is the link to the gallery we will use for this year.

Who's on board with me??

OK, I might try it. Do the photos have to be self-portraits or can the kids take them as long as I am in the picture?

I always say yes to these challenges and fizzle out around day 5. But I have to keep trying. So ... yes!
