I haven’t taken any self-portraits for at least a year. But this week I got (a) a new tripod mount for my camera, to replace the one that got stolen together with my previous camera in last year’s burglary, and (b) a new haircut, which is just like the old haircut but fresher, and this combination was simply begging to be used for a self-portrait.

A fresh haircut always feels so good. I love the clean, free feeling of having no hair touch my neck or ears.
