Taking Pictures of People

I'm off on a jaunt today
to take pictures of beautiful people
with skin tones not as white as mine,
can show its commitment to diversity.

And since I'm putting others on the spot,
capturing them in all their glory,
(and we all know how much we hate seeing
photos of ourselves unless they match our
image of ourselves)
I figured I should post a self-portrait.


Yup. That's me.
I'm the one in the coat,
not the one looking flirty in a swimsuit.

You'd never recover if you viewed
a picture of me in a swimsuit.

I've tried self portraits but am never happy with them.
I love that face -- your face I guess I should say -- it's a good face, an interesting face, a sincere face - a strong face - someone I'd like to have coffee with face!

why is it that we have images of ourselves that don't match reality? I know that i am absolutely shocked each time I see a photo of myself.. is that me? and I will not share them unless they have been censored somewhat.. *sigh* gotta learn to love myself !!
