			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.briangerry.com/?attachment_id=193"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-193" title="Self-Portrait-DSC_7512" src="http://www.briangerry.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Self-Portrait-DSC_7512-1024x590.jpg" alt="" width="614" height="354" /></a></p>
<p>Self portraits are just uncomfortable business.  But then again so is putting up a blog and sharing imagery and thoughts. All part of this experiment&#8217;s learning process.</p>
<p>I like this shot ok.  But it&#8217;s only just passable.  And really it&#8217;s only passable because I put four shots together and created the frame to make it semi-interesting and passable.  So again another learning experience for me but not a shot I&#8217;m particularly proud of.</p>
<p>In my next post I hope to be sharing something that works out better.  Perhaps I can someone to let me take their photograph.  I also want to comment that this one photo post per week for this year is a little harder than I thought.  Or at least harder to get great images that I&#8217;m proud of.  So it maybe it&#8217;s time to mix things up a little more.</p>
<p>I think that shooting with a purpose is a good way to mix it up here.  And maybe also adding in more fun.  Photography is fun, dammit.</p>

<h3>Geek Side Note:</h3>
<p>This is one my first shots with a <a onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/joby.com');" href="http://joby.com/gorillapod" target="_blank">gorilla pod</a> which looks like a robot but even better than that works really well.  Thanks for the recommendation <a onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.ericnadatherapy.com');" href="http://www.ericnadatherapy.com/">Mr. Nada</a> and a double helping of gratitude to my wife for the Christmas gift.</p></blockquote>
