I don’t often make self-portrait appearances herein but this photo made me laugh so I thought I should post it here ( and it might look better on black). I took it for my daily image on BlipFoto. Thanks to the boy for helping me get it set up.

For the technically minded, I did this by wrapping my black photo background round my head, putting a strobe in a softbox flat under my chin, turning it right down to lowest flash setting and going for a pretty quick shutter ( 1/200th ). Eat your heart out ILM.
