Mid-night Migraine

Inasmuch as I did not make it to the workshop I'd hoped to attend, I decided to attempt a photo all by myself, with no instructor, and this is what I came up with. Does it count as a self-portrait if my husband pushed the shutter button, but I did all the directing and told him when to push ?

Of course, the lovely Brooke Shaden was my inspiration, and I still don't know how she does the hair flip. Nonetheless, I'm a little bit proud of how this photo turned out, and that I bought the dress and candle stick holder for less than $2 total! My eyes have been reopened this week to the importance of refusing, reducing, and then recycling (in that order). Here is a link to the eye-opener.
