Again, nothing seemed to work, so I went out laid down in the flower bed, closed my eyes and shot.

Yes, I blurred it on purpose. I find I prefer my face better blurred, LOL. Sad, but true.

I love this! Very sweet, and otherworldly with the blur. Could be out of a fairy tale. Colors are awesome.

A sense of tranquility comes through. Kudos to you for even attempting a self portrait, blur or no blur. I find them exceedingly hard to do.

Heh! You've gotta get him his own camera and get him hooked, then he'll begin to understand. I like this - very relaxed feeling to it. And I understand the whole blur thing. (I prefer to be shot in complete darkness...)

Fun photo. I had a fleeting impression of someone laid to rest. I'm glad it's just you lying in the flower bed. Do you ever wonder what the neighbors think? :-)

Gee, and I thought you did the blur on purpose. I like it a lot. The whole thing hangs together and the flowers look the better for it. Excellent.

No forgiveness needed. Not my best job. But I'm learning from each and every submission. Also, I don't necessarily care for pics of myself. If I was 20, thin, and beautiful it might be a different thing, but ...
