To sleep...

Hallmark Phase 1 Porfolio assignment...included a self-portrait. Personally, I have never really enjoyed making pictures of myself, but surprisingly I had fun with this one, and think it came out well.

As portfolio review drew near, I was amazingly sleep deprived, so this seemed like the only logical thing to shoot. And yes, everything on that bed was very carefully selected.
