#3 self-portrait challenge!

This week you're being invited to take ONE photograph of yourself - a self portrait. Make it interesting. Show the rest of us who you really are!

Write a paragraph describing the process of arriving at this particular photograph. And, another paragraph about the insights you may gained in the process.

Note! 

1. No pressures to write anything if there have not been any significant insights.

2. Please put your name in the title and remember to label it as "self-portrait". 

3. Please use correct English. This is NOT a chat/leisure space.

4. No supplementary, descriptive tagline/text. The photograph should stand on its own.

5. I want each one to comment on everyone else's photographs as you view them. Try!

5. After 11pm on wed 13th Aug I'd like each one to vote ONE "self-portrait" you liked the most. Also tell us why.
