Camera Skills Need An Upgrade

The boyfriend was kind enough to take this picture of me before we stepped out to go to Barbes.  I was really rocking that French sailor look....  : )
*Quick sidenote - if you haven't been to Barbes and you live in the Brooklyn area, this is really something you should remedy, especially on Mondays to see Brain Cloud.


Now, it is clear from this photo that the camera skills are in need of a serious upgrade. Despite fiddling around with the picture using one of the those iPhone camera apps, I still couldn't get enough improvement out of it to avoid looking like one black blob with stripes thrown in somewhere in the middle.  Oh, and my head looks funny, like way-to-big-for-my-body funny.  But, c'est la vie!  I think I should just remember to present my right side to the camera and focus on shouting directions to the BF a la Naomi Campbell.  Perhaps I could throw a cell phone at him as well.


Cheers,
Elle
