Selfie!

I came across this self portrait in an envelope of old photos I took probably dating back to the late 1990’s.  I used my grandfather’s Pentax camera with black and white film and no flash.  There was not much preparation in this shot, and it was of course, manual focus.  Our pet cockatiel named “Baby” was resting on my shoulder as she really enjoyed doing, cuddling next to and nibbling on my ear once in awhile to remind me she was there.  I wanted to take a picture of her, but the only way to do this was in a large mirror.  So this was probably one of my first selfies, though taken as a reflection so it is a reverse image.
