Photo Challenge- Day 1

Today is my first try at the 30 Day Photo Challenge. I am hoping to learn more and get more comfortable with my camera as I go, and so it is my hope that over the 30 days, my pictures will get better- I guess we will see.
Day 1
So, day 1 starts out with a self-portrait...
So, I thought I would grab my tripod and take a quick snapshot- no worries, right?? And then I couldn't find my tripod... Do you know how much harder it is to take your own picture and not have double chins if you don't have a tripod?? Let's just say that it is a good thing that my camera is digital and I can take over a hundred pictures if I want, and no, I did not actually take over a hundred, but it certainly felt that way. I decided to expand this portrait challenge slightly and so I took a full body and head shot. I am hoping they come out better the next time I try this challenge! But here they are....
Full Body
So, without my tripod, I had to do the mirror shot. I also had just gotten these fabulous pants that gave me that Audrey Hepburn/Breakfast at Tiffany's feel. I absolutely adore them! Thank you Gap!!
Head Shot
The head shot took some time- like I mentioned before, it took a few tries to get it in focus and not have a double chin.
So, it was kind of fun to shoot the pictures, but I have to say, I am looking most forward to some of the upcoming days...check back in!
