Flash of inspiration.
I noticed my glasses, which I had pushed up on my forehead so I could focus in on small print.
Ah-ha!
It’s harder than I thought, to focus through my glass lenses onto my face.
That’s why this is a bit out of focus.
A good learning experience though. I ended up using manual focus, and taking many frames, incrementing the focus ever so slightly, until I had this.
I’m not frowning here. I’m actually smiling. Squinting, in my attempt at seeing what’s in front of me, but actually trying to smile.
Different!

Whoa! Elements of Ingmar Bergman and Dali.. weirdly captivating.
