View Full Version : Self Portraits
Hello everyone, me again. Seeing as it was my idea to do the self portrait thing and see all the faces behind the names, I will be the first to put my face out there,lol :P I hope alot of you out there are willing to have a little fun with this. Take care and keep shooting!

I prefer to stay behind the camera, and being as I'm not very photogenic, this is about as good as I get :shock:

Ha HAAAH! You certainly will. As do I.
I'm copying it to:

Hmmm... Men in Black.
Cheese doesn't even begin to cover it...
My excuse is my missus wanted one for her 'puta wallpaper at work - just to prove to all the fat, sweaty sales reps that yes, I will kick thier arses if they try to grope her by the copy machine...
It's the one and ONLY photo of me extant apart from Reggie, Bn and Mess phots.
Steve you look like a Borg reject from star trek,
CT is that an RG series Ibanez? Double locking Floyd rose and all that?

It's the S470 with a slightly different bridge to the Floyd Rose - locking tuners.

hmmm nice, i always wanted an RG series, i only had a Silver Series squire, was a very good guitar, but a slightly mangling radial-arm saw incident and my ring finger sort of put a stop to massive string bends and fast scales..still got a Yamaha acoustic that gets the occasional strum though
(yes i know tony Iommi lost the tips of his fingers and has 'plastic' tips but i wasnt ever that good!)
My Bro may be selling his Gibson Les Paul maple flame-top for a huge sum of money, if you're interested.

Hows the guitar going?
I've not really touched my strat for a few weeks, mind you, i've not touched the CTR or mt 20D either :shock:
Arkady
I was also expecting someone who looked like the avatar, :o :o :o , i have no idea why though!
Steve.......i hope your finger was well away from the trigger then.... 8) can't help but think you look like Steve Mcdonald off corrie :lol:
mypix, are you sure your not a ben elton clone?
I'll have to pull my finger out and sort an image out, i might make it a loose self portrait though like you guys......and get someone else to take it for me :lol:
Brian your very lucky i cant find the photo i have of you...

Hehehehehehe, how right you are. lets see now.....anglesea, and peterbourgh were 2 such locations for image taking.
I don't think i've ever seen a picture of myself that i like though. :(

I'm still strummin' but I've got too many other interests. The CTR is a disgrace - must try and clean it tomorrow. :oops:
I have never liked my picture taken and this is one of a very limited amount of me. Taken near the end of 2004 practising with the self timer and tripod routine.
PS. I don’t really have red eyes.

awwwww come on people. I figured alot more of you would have put your picture out there! It's fun too see all the faces behind the screens. Considering how many people viewed the post I"m actually surprised. Don't be so shy!! Oh well for those of you who did participate thank you. Hey matt(EosD) anyone ever tell you, you look like the guy from the show "Yes Dear". You remind me of the brother in law who lives in the guest house. That's too funny. I don't know who gets what shows where but if you get a chance to see the show, watch it,lol. :P
Cheers, Jewel.
I'm surprised we've had this many Jewel. I never met a photographer yet who felt comfortable on the 'other' side of the lens. :lol:
That's why I thought it would have made a great thread. I guess your right though. :?

never seen t jewel but a quick play on google tells me im much better looking

Ok, here is me

This is me on one of my wildlife expaditions.

The hat and glasses were there for my protection, these birds drop white bombs on you and peck you with their sharp beaks.
I was fortunate to only get hit once.
The photo was taken by are very own Admin 'Steve'.
Are you ready for this:

Er, I'm on the left, lol...
Edit - have resized as I hadn't realised the pic was quite that big. Apologies all!
http://petemc.net/gallery/images/portraits/me.jpg
Thats me wearing my magical photography hat. I can't take a decent shot without it :D
I find it very interesting when communicating with everyone here in the forums and you get a picture in your head about someone behind the names we see. Then when you actually see them for who they really are it's totally not what you had expected. Am I right? Well it's been pretty cool seeing all of your faces. Very nice wedding photo there Oz. Take care, Jewel. :)

I've always felt the same. Its easier to think of people you chat to online as being similar to yourself, same age, similar to people you know. I guess its all you have to relate to.
Pook's shots are great.
it is really odd isnt it, i went to a meet of another forum i moderate on and was surprised at the diversity of the members..it is nice to know what people look like though, get a sense of knowing people better then
Helooo!
I'm new to these forums, just arrived here from OcUK Photo forums. Should be posting around here soon, and hopfully enter the comps :)
Anyway this is me! Not a self portrait just one of me that i found on my camera after one of my flatmates had been playing with it!

Diversity is great Matt(EosD). So what other forums do you moderate on? Wow your a busy man!

Hey Ian, your piccies are gone. Not sure if you had intended that or not? Also what's with G TOMO's pic? Am I losing my mind people or is that all the same guy?LOL, How did you do that? :?
Jewel.

It's the same guy Jewel It's very easy to do as long as you have a tripod. It's one shot for each figure, it's then just a case of cloning the different figures into the shot using the Clone Tool in PSP or the Rubber Stamp Tool in PS. There's no limit to the amusing possibilities - you're only limited by your imagination. :D I can feel a 'How To' coming on.
so here i am..the latest n00b of the forums...

That's brilliant! :) I'd never thought of doing it that way. :oops: I've tried a similar sort of thing by stacking layers and erasing through them to see what's underneath, but I hadn't thought of using the clone tool (PSP9). You can clone from one image to another!!!! Not tried that! Great... please do a 'How To'! :D
I'm sure we did one of these threads not long ago didn't we? Any way, I posted silly pics in that one, so I'll put a simple snap shot in this one. My hair is longer now. I decided that I didn't like looking like a thug.

lol nice pic |show| and Pook i think its the same thread!

Oooooo, don't you just love filters :P

Nice portrait Kate but I can’t help but say it would be much improved if you cloned out the distracting white section on the right. I know you have only posted the picture to show us what you look like but the picture is too good to be let down by that small oversight ;)
