Day 1: The Shave


I figured that if I'm gonna take 30 photographs of myself, I might as well start clean shaven so I don't look like a total bum.

Things I learned today:
- Camera's are pretty good at automatically focusing in mirrors, even if the mirrors distort the image (although I'm not convince my image is pin sharp)
- Never moisturize your face less than usual before shaving, just to get a nice picture. Irritated skin isn't worth your first self portrait.

Guess what....

I have this idea already for a long time.
I must say, you executed my idea very well.
I am not sure I can do as good, but I will probably try it within the next 30 days or so.
