who took this picture? The girl in the pic (using a timer) or someone else?

I took the picture, it is in the hats competion.

I am her parent, the look says it all, all because she has to wear the hat.

It's a cute shot. The look on her face looks like "You dare take my picture"

Love the faded washed out look of the background versus the crisp clear colourful image of the girl. Good Luck Author.

oh, so both you and your daughter are members on this site then, since she has an entry in the "self portrait" contest also?

K5683, why are you so anal about this entry? It's a good shot and on theme. I think you should place author. Good luck to you, for you have received high marks from me.

Josh I don't think k5683 is being anal, perhaps just inquisitive, I had wondered the same thing when I saw this shot and now the author has cleared things up so I say all is well! It's nice to see a budding photographer

why do you think I'm anal about it? Because I asked questions? Remember, there aren't "tones" in words on the computer
I think it is awesome if both the author and the young daughter are both members. In fact, I think it is awesome for all the real young members to be here.

K5683: It's the Hats contest, not Self Portrait.

Best of luck!!
