Out With The Old, In With The New

This self-portrait, with the camera held at arm's length away, shows much more than simply 3 girls having fun on a rainy day (hence the yellow hooded raincoat on me, and the blue rain jacket on Aimee).

Not only was it shot during the change of seasons in Orlando, Florida (from spring to summer, AKA "the rainy season")...

This photo was also shot just a few days after Judy (pictured in the center) had joined our staff at UCF and a few days before I quit my job at UCF to run off and get married.

It's oddly coincidental that I'm the one that barely fits in the frame...

A word about the photos found here...

I have this thing for self-portraits and candid group shots taken while holding the camera at arm's length away from you.

You almost always manage to capture something unique in those photos -- in addition to the priceless expressions of the people being photographed.

Welcome to my photobooth...
The output may not be those long, thin photo strips you're used to seeing, but the effect is still the same!
