I tried various poses and positions for my self portrait, including the photo in the mirror, and holding the camera at arms length and shooting on auto. But I just wasn't completely satisfied with any of these images.
Then I had the idea that I could use a stunt double! So Scooby-Doo kindly took some time off from his hectic schedule to be my stand in. ...
In fairness to him, he did a great job, and I'm grateful to him for his assistance.
So having composed the shot and focusing it, with the timer set, I sent Scoob's flying and jumped into place.....
I'm pretty happy that I managed to look like I'm all relaxed and in control of the situation. Just goes to show, looks can be deceiving ;-)

Wow Audrey, that is a brilliant idea using a stunt double! Thanks a million for sharing that one! The photo is gorgeous, you look very relaxed which is really difficult to do when you are taking the photo yourself :-)
I love this photo of you Audrey - and yes - you look soooo relaxed - you would never know you were fighting off your stunt double to get in the piccie LOL
Brill photo Auds. You do look very relaxed. I might have to "borrow" scooby coz I haven't done my photo yet :-0
Clever scooby doo!!! Great self portrait Auds - but we all know there is a dog snapping at your heals!!! :-)
