I'm not sure why I didn't reply to this one before - I like a lot Chris.
Question is, who is framed?

I love these, Gianluca! All with a sense of humour. The last is a classic, though I'd be tempted to crop-out the left side. What do you think?

Le me disagree with you. The empty side gives life to the other side for me.

Definitely a nice job! I also like the mirrored lettering that casually says “Venom” for “Money” (Stanley Kubrick would have loved it).

Thank you Gianluca. I'm really glad you spotted that! I often shoot in or close to this location and it has caused a wry smile a few times now.

My first selfie .... 100 years ago when I was in high school.

I like it. Almost like a watch advert from the 80s. Or Nikon.
Good composition, with the arms and the bold stare out to the observer.

Thank you Rob MacKillop. Funny you mentioned the watch. My girlfriend's mother owned a jewelry store and I was able to obtain/purchase a Croton digital watch back around 1970. Gold with a blank red face. When one presses the crown button, tiny led number would pop up. Often I had to cup my hand around the face to read the time. The watch was certainly a novelty and it received a lot of attention during its 'time'. (Sometime people would grab my wrist in inquire "What is that?".
As this is a photo site ... here's a photo of my girlfriend back then.
Hasselblad 500 C/M w/ Zeiss 80mm Planar - Tri-X

Do you still have your Blad, Gary?

Sadly no. A few years ago I did start to play around with a Fujifilm GX 680III.

Not the most flattering selfie, Keith, but that makes a welcome change. Very good.
