    Dave, a very interesting self portrait! I'm curious about the lighting--the shadow cast by the handle. Was this flash from below?

    How many years of rust does this photo represent?

    Great shot Dave. You might try it in monochrome. I think the blue is a little distracting.

    Dave -- do you really have long unevened legs??? Your title was very disappointing. I was expecting at least an iphone stick taking your image...show us your mug... forget about it...

    Thanks Bruce, no flash, it was taken at 8:30 AM. I think the trunk was tilted up a little.

    Izzie, I posted this portrait because it is very slimming and makes me about 6' 3". Haha.

    Well seen shot, Dave.

    You shoudn't have said anything. I would have always thought you were thin and 6' 3". Now I'll have to wonder.

    Awesome Dave, the tones and textures are great. And the self portrait bit just adds something more - nice shot!
