I told myself that I'd do one post per month, here I am, on the last day of April, reminding the internet of the self portraits I do, realising that I haven't done this since February, and my March post was secret. It's not that I haven't got anything to say, I'm just a terrible procrastinator and slacker... I promise I'll make it up next month... Pretty please.
So without further ado, what I believe are my best self-portraits since last time:
February 28th:
One of my darker portraits, conceived without the candles and just my lit up face, I preferred it like this however, it gave the picture a certain balance.
March 2nd:
B is for balloons, during March, I did a letter of the alphabet (in order) each day. It meant that March so far has been my best self portrait month, as I had to put in more work every day, and I got results like this one (my favourite self portrait of this project so far).
March 7th:
Suspending gravity, I just had a lot of fun taking his picture.
March 8th:
Left the camera outside the bathroom, commenced showering, and when I had set my hair with shampoo, opened the door for a quick snap, and this atmospheric result came out.
March 9th:
I is for Irresistible; anything else?
March 12th:
I have to do at least SOME picture in the nude, and when they turn out great... Why not. I have a female audience after all ;)
March 15th:
Not all days were born equal, including this one.
March 19th:
Visiting my uncle in Horsens, he gave (or lent) me my grandfathers old camera, so I held it in one hand, and my uncles Canon EOS 5D Mark II in my other hand (yes I held a 5D Mark II in one outstretched arm/hand).
March 26th:
But there ain't no cure, so let this fever rock.
March 27th:
Ever tried thinking of something with X? Xerox... (No xylophone was nearby).
March 28th:
I broke of from the alphabet system for a day, taking another picture in this terrible, but wonderful, kitchen.
March 29th:
To fully understand this picture, listen to Yellow by Coldplay.
April 5th:
Alhambra Palace, overlooking Granada (Spain).
April 9th:
The name's Bond... James Bond.
April 13th:
Go ahead... Make my day.
April 20th:
The colours, the sharpness, the blured background... It's just right.
April 23rd:
I went to Trondheim, and met Ingrid again (not since 2006).
April 25th:
Photo excursion to a public swimming pool, just wrong.
April 29th:
Latest picture, best Mussolini effect I've done so far.

So... Status. I really should write something real, and I will. I have plenty of good ideas, but all good things come... Eventually ;).
“As Time Goes By”
Wow, was the last time I wrote about my photo project really January 11th? Ouch.
I'm not going to go through every single picture since then, but I will present my favourites:
January 12th:
Plain old fun, I took 6 separate pictures with a moustache drawn on my mirror, and put them together.
January 15th:
Sometimes the study life takes its toll.
January 20th:
And sometimes you get to have fun (in Spain).
January 27th:
I purposefully drained all colour from this picture, making it seem lifeless, and then drew a smiley.
January 28th:
Not much to say, I feel the picture works, and the shadow compliments it all.
February 4th:
While skiing, I managed to catch some great light in a lift.
February 9th:
Blinded by religion, the 3 symbols on the duct tape are the David Star, the Christian Cross and the Islamic Half Moon.
February 11th:
Everything works so well, although I'm unsure about the ink on my hand.
February 14th:
Meditating in a suit? Come on.
February 18th:
1984 is my favourite book, and of the 3 slogans, this one worked the best.
February 23rd:
My first diptych, eat a piece of dark chocolate or Gilbert?
