The Reject Pile
I’ve mentioned before that I’m working on a self-portrait photo project - a self portrait every single day for one year. Today I went back through the reject pile for some of the more ridiculous outtakes.
There is a common theme with many of these photos…don’t ask me how, but I manage to take a photo of myself before I’m ready. That, my friends, is a rare and stupid talent.

Reason: Not only was I not in this photo, but Abe took one of the zeros off the wall and ran off with it. Good times. |

These are hilarious! I actually love the bored Ike and your annoyed face made me snicker. You should do more of these outtakes!

Comments are fixed! So weird, but I figured it out.

It is a rare and stupid talent! Your outtakes are hilarious, I can just picture you fiddling with the camera in a few of those.

OMG, these are AWESOOOOME! I love the firing squad one and the annoyed one above it. You look like you’re about to bitch someone out in Italian, LOL!

Great photos! But I think I liked the last one the best… it’s your commentary that makes it so good.
Thanks for sharing, some people would find that hard to do!
Love you blog and photos (as always)
