Last year I started a Facebook Photo Challenge with some friends and this year I have continued. If you would like to join in on the challenge please let me know. I have a list of prompts for each week as a means of getting your creative thoughts flowing. For this weeks first challenge the prompt is “Self Portrait”. Very…
