I am coming up the rear with comments this time because I also have a nearly 11 month old munchkin who I have had to (no arm twisting needed !) help with over the last couple of days and phones have to be put on silence and hidden so I have been 'off-line'.Phil Fisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13594941133570473922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2782529108660000163.post-1113528807969240112015-12-01T08:08:12.500+00:002015-12-01T08:08:12.500+00:00I have never had the courage to do a self portrait...I have never had the courage to do a self portrait but it looks so effortless the way you have done yours, right down to the smallest detail.

Glad Oscar is also wearing our colour, but he does look a bit worried about having his photo taken.
