I’m for sale
Or at least some of my photo prints are.
Almost a month ago I showed some of my prints to the owners of a framing and art shop in the College Park section of Orlando. She took six prints right away and asked for seven more. I needed to write a bio for myself so I dashed off a couple of paragraphs about myself and why I love photography. I also needed a bio photo and I may use this one – So what do you think? Does this patch-mad say photo-artist? or dork? Even if you comment with dork – I’ll still post it.

I say that photo says “Genius-At-Large” or “man who appreciates perfection in a button-down shirt collar.” In other words, I think you should use it.
Unless you have a picture of you wearing seersucker, a panama hat, and aviators. Then I’d say go with that one.
Congratulations, btw!

Whenever possible, I prefer eccentricity in artists. This picture says eccentric, but at the same time someone I can relate to, which is also something I would want in a photo which I would hang in my house.

Well, I do like the patch coat and why be boring? Be artistic, for sure. I actually think a white shirt would set it off better… 🙂

KS – the genius – your book will show us the genius –
Emma – thanks – I’m waiting for the “dork comment” – thanks for not posting it
Greg – if I can relate to someone – that’s the winner- Thanks! Is it possible to have a crew cut and a pony tail?
Jim – a friend for 50 years – I thought you’d toss me the dork vote!
Anna – you got it right – don’t be boring – Thanks – my best to Presteon.

I think any color shirt would go with the coat. That’s part of its charm. Hey, if you feel it says who you are then use it by all means. Besides, it’s your face which is the most important element.

Scott — thanks buddy! But this face.. its a face that Joan Rivers wants to take a knife to!
I’m working on some other photos.. so I’ll at least give y’all a choice.

Love the jacket. Maybe a black shirt with green tie or vice versa would be interesting.
