Trying to use the self-timer

March 10, 2009 | Category:

I am often inspired by the amazing pictures of Angela Giles Klocke, Tyler Knott Gregson, and Helen Adelaide (Everyday Stranger). Especially by their abilities to take pictures of themselves - honest, playful, clear-eyed, smiling.

I? Am neither photogenic nor particularly talented with a camera. I finally figured out (8 years later) the self-timer on the Canon but no clue on how to put myself (instead of my monitor) into focus.

Behind me is the massive desk I share with my son (my head is blocking his iMac). This is supposed to be a picture of me - day 1 of the new "move my body, mind, and soul" regime.

This the all-natural me: no make-up, hair air-dried post-swim, midnight, end of a long - but good - day.
