Maneuvering an SLR camera around in one hand to take one's self-portrait is no easy feat but I did manage, after about sixty-seven shots, to get my face in it! I also was trying to obtain a sketch-like quality to this photo.

I love the sketching effect! It's hard trying to hold a big camera in one or two hands to get a good picture of yourself!
Love the effect!
Yes, balancing a camera in one hand while trying to look all natural and beautiful is not an easy task. Well done oh natural, beautiful one!
Very neat, I love the effect (I am going to try that next time! : )
Wow...what a cool picture! Great job!
I got lucky with my el-cheapo camera, easy to take a self portrait. I can't imagine trying to manage a big camera. I'd be terrified of dropping it! Great pic. Did you do that with ink sketch? I love it!! GREAT JOB!!
This is a cool pic, Dot. I'm chuckling a bit at how many tries you took before getting this one. My photo session ended without getting a good shot, so I'm going to try again later. I'm thinking I may just use my trusty point & shoot for this assignment though.
This was the one time I was wishing that I had a point-and-shoot camera. It was so hard to get a good shot with the big, heavy one.
Love the sketching effect beautiful lady. :) Really unique and clever.

LOL, you are not an airhead. I'm going to try it.
This is so unique! Thanks for sharing! And...I love that all of your family has freckles! I used to love my freckles when I was little, but they seem to have faded as I've gotten older!
That's a good shot, Dot! LOL! I slay me!
I like the neat effect you used. What program did you use to make the edits?
Thanks for lovely comment on my blog!
You did a great job with this, I really love it!

whoa!! cool editing! so original.
great job finally getting yourself in the frame. turned out great!
Cool editing effect! I decided to enter with the same self portrait I used for a recent 365 shot. :) My point and shoot was enough of a challenge. You got a good picture of yourself!
The sketch effect is really cool. I love sketching by hand and this is something that looks quite similar... very nice.
How fun! I love that you got creative:-) Good to see your face!

I have yet to do my self portrait! You did great though!
Look at you being all creative! This is a fun shot, and you are too cute!
What a cool effect! This is really a great self-portrait!
Great editing. I love the effect it had!
I wouldn't have thought to use the sketching effect...it looks great!
The sketch effect that you have here is just too cool! I love your picture!
