everyone can just stop. if you disagree, woohoo. a self portrait is a form of art. are you saying that a black and white picture of an old man kneeling by his wifes grave putting a single rose on it wouldn't be considered art??! open your eyes and brain and don't be so arrogant

'kinda'?? You're gorgeous, girl! But you don't need me to tell you that because you should already know that!

I do agree that this would be a lovely photo more suited for Facebook, but it's photography all the same; if you like taking pictures of yourself to express yourself, i believe that's just the same as taking pictures of animals/scenery/other people, etc. However, you could definitely further extend your use of your camera with 'self-portraits' such as this one, so keep clicking :)

This is a discussion board. A community. How will she get realistic feedback if we keep it only nice? I agree with LiteCloud.

I agree with JustAnotherOwl. If you have nothing nice to say, don't say it all. Seriously.
