Well, this is one of my first "people" posts. It's me on a float in a friend's pool. It was an extremely hot day and the water was great.

Good to see you there handsome ;)

The light is marvelous, especially as it is reflected on your face. This is really a great self potrait Stephen. Good contrast, great colours and composition is very good.

Very nice self portrait stephan, colors and lighting are perfect!

So, you did a perfect job with the self timer, Stephen. Clicked, jumped to the water, and posed for the camera. and look so calm after that ;-)
Good job.

Excellent post - I love the surrounding you chose for your self-portrait. Sunny and wet is always nice. And you look so very relaxed.
The colours are great, also nice sharp details (love your tatoo).
12 points :-)
