Self Portraits

First and foremost, welcome back to the Photographers of Etsy (POE) blog!  We plan to keep things a little livelier around here, so be sure to come back soon and check in often.  :)

I'm not sure why it took me so long to notice, but lately I've been appreciating the plethora of self-portraits among POE members.  There are some really breathtaking images out there that POEs have been taking of themselves!  Needless to say, I'm impressed -- AND inspired to soon put myself in front of my own lens.

Check out some of the dramatic, honest, surreal, and just plain lovely self portraits I've wrangled here.  Have YOU taken any self-portraits lately?

Of course, this is just the tip of the iceberg.  If you have a self portrait to share, please do!  Post your images on the team page on Etsy, in this discussion thread.

I am loving this! What a true inspiration. My only disappointment is only one guy stepped up (and what a great self portrait he gave us)! Come on guys. Give us your best shot.

Cheers!
