CDP Theme day.. 'My camera-shy self portrait'..



Well I'm not making it easy for you, you'll have to search for moi :) When we were in Fremantle yesterday, as always I take the opportunity to call in at Wendy Binks gallery on South Terrace. As luck would have it Wendy was in the gallery at the time (you can see her to the left) and as a fellow photophobe (?) she was happy to chat while P snapped a few shots from outside in, it's quite clear really! Below the shot I was originally going to use, taken reflected in one of sculptures on Cottesloe Beach a few weeks ago, not quite so hard :) Looking forward to seeing you all today! Happy Wednesday, take care and stay safe. p.s. slight amendment to second shot, thanks Jack, hilarious :)

  16. I thought maybe by saving the picture and blowing it up I would find you, but no, and I give up. I like the second photo.

  17. Grace, ha-ha! First thing I thought - Freo!, even just seeing Jack´s (slow download)!
    Great self-portrait!
    Really, no kidding, I knew it´s Jack´s in Freo. Getting-lost-me-never-been-inside! LOL.

  32. Great shot from opposite hungry Jacks - yes my photo on Stockport DP is pretty coy but my one on Hyde DP is less so.
