she came all the way from America, she had a blind date with destiny

As a reasonably proficient amateur photography wonk with an eye for arrangement and a half decent point and shoot camera, I see so much in this photo that I could have done better.
But fuck all that. I love this photo. It is my favorite self portrait ever. It’s very me in every sense, down to the slightly slanted angle (I’ll cop to really needing to get a tripod). I love the colors and attitude. This photo is as close as I think I’ll ever get to capturing the juxtaposition of eccentricities that makes me who I am.
Love it! Your red skirt really makes an excellent focal point- it’s the first thing my eye went to.
