How hard this was it will never be known fully but here were the small trials over taking a simple picture.
First of all had to find the perfect spot as any old room or rock wouldn't do, it must be perfect with no other company, a support for the camera and the perfect lighting.
Next had to straighten perfectly curly hair so to pull off the perfect picture as normally wayward hair would not have been appropriate.
Kick out the people walking by in the city wondering why there's a camera alone taking a picture of someone against a wall - People can be very bitchy and insecure especially when they think you're up to no good.
Finally up to the main part - the taking of the picture.
First the colouration was wrong, then the DPI was set too low. The flash was set to automatic and only a restart would allow the setting of off.
The first 12 shots either chopped off head, arms, enlarged to obese or made the pic look aboriginal.
Then when thinking turned to the belief that the shot could never be taken, one last take, a timed shot was taken. Whoa la!
