Hey guys and gals, I didn't use any special photoshop tricks or filters to add the lines of stress on my face. All natural baby. writer of Motor City (www.motorcitycomic.com)
Half of the pictures which feature the physical incarnation of myself in China. (I hate posing in front of buildings.) I'd say that the photo of me standing next to a colleague is also a perfectly valid self-portrait, since it illustrates my general attitude towards being forced to be in that same group of people for sixteen days straight.
That being said, I don't think I've posted enough threads to have mentioned that I was going to go to China to study abroad for two weeks. Which is what I did, and I'm glad :) Now to the doctor to be tested for Japanese Encephalitis (?)
P.S. Okay, I did that wrong. I will correct it later.
I snuck into our employee bathroom (which is very nice) to take this pic on the leather-covered bench in there. I'm laying down, which explains the hair streaming outward.
