A self portrait, but not of your physical self, but of how you see yourself inside.

BearMusic once did a great shot for a self portrait of a drop of water on a twig...this is what I'm talking about. Something that symbolizes you, but is not of your outward self.

Basic or advanced editing

That is a VERY beautiful idea, Linda!

Yes, very good idea, wouldn't have a clue what to do but at least it will make us think.

Hopefully Langdon will too..or whoever decides these things

Have to go all the way back to February, 2005 to find that one ;-) Or set profile sorting "by score, inverted" and it will be right on top...

We could discuss matter that at length.

Inserted in the challenge proposed here, most definitely. In a "Self Portrait" challenge having the following ...."Description
It's time once again for everyone to become better acquainted! Find your best side, and submit a self-portrait... maybe not so much.

I was told to find my best side, thought about it, and eschewed the flesh for the mind. YOU'VE seen me, Ray; my "best side" ain't physical :-)

...you do have a beautiful mind...that you do.

Having said that, the image you did submit would make it very difficult for most to use it to meet this: "it's time once again for everyone to become better acquainted". Essentially what I am saying, only those who truly know your mind could link that image to you.

I could say that I find you attractive, but I am certain some could bend that comment way out of shape. :O)

I well remember the days when I shared barracks with 32 other men and we were men's men.
