About I was just getting Christmas images from my computer ready to send out my E-Cards for the season when Ho Ho Ho - I tripped over this photo that someone took of me a few years ago. Thought I'd post it just for chuckles seeing as I've never posted an image of myself. That's because I'm always on the other side of the camera. Sorry about the size and bad quality of the photo but someone else snapped this with a point and shoot camera at a work Christmas party. Yes I had Christmas garland all over me so in keeping with the festive season again I wish you all a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Take care driving over Christmas everyone and I'll see you all again next year.

Cheers and Ho Ho Ho from Ann :)

Wow, great picture Ann! I love your summer dress with the Christmas garlands, and the ones around the ankles! And the long hair! Great smile! It's really nice to see you, finally. I see the map of Australia on the wall too. Very cool candid shot!
Have a wonderful Christmas! Hugs, Ina

Merry Christmas Ann!
How nice to meet you.

Hi Ann Lovely to 'see you' and have noted down your address. I think I know the site you mean, there are quite a few familiar names.
Have a wonderful Christmas and may the New Year bring you Health and Happiness

Wonderful capture of a beautiful lady, pleasing and well done.


Darlene Boucher   {K:15634} 12/20/2005
Great image Ann! Very colorful and festive! I know what you mean about being on the other side of the camera, not many pics of me hanging around and I like it like that! Did take one of Mason and I this afternoon, a reflection in the window, may post it. Hope you have a very Merry Christmas and a Wonderful New Year, be safe and take care my friend! Darlene


Kathy Hillard   {K:25721} 12/20/2005
How nice to see a pic of you Ann! You're right...this certainly isn't the quality that we would expect if YOU were doing to shooting...but I'm glad that you uploaded it anyway! I hope your holiday is wonderful, and see you next year!

The fog was just in the low areas and not up where I was when this was taken. This kind of light only last just a short time. We were driving down the road and I got out and took a few shots. Didn't have time to do much composition or anything. Just make do with what you have at the time. Thanks for the great comments. Have a great Holiday Season. Don.
Ann, I tried to respond on my picture and it would not accept the reply to you. When I went to your picture here was what I was writing to you. The site needs some professional help. Don.


Susie OConnor   {K:34798} 12/20/2005

HI Ann,

Merry Christmas!

I'm off work with a cold - got to remember that we get snow and it's properly cold in Leeds this time of year. At least I get chance to do all the present wrapping and preparation for the trip back to my folk's house.

Just picking a photo from last years lot to post as my Xmas card - got a high key tree with lots of snow, or a snowy village scene with a tungsten cast....

choices.

You're obviously a very festive kinda girl from this shot :-) Last time I went to a Xmas fancy dress I went as a train-spotter..... not festive, but kinda ironically tragic in its own way.

Have a top Xmas

Ade

Del Metheny   {K:25369} 12/25/2005
Thanks for your comments on my photos. Also thanks for posting a photo of your self even if not your normal lounging clothes (or are they). It is always nice to put a face with the name.I did look at several of the photos you have posted and you have visited some beautiful places and done a good job of capturing what you have seen. I would love to visit your home country some time but doubt I will. I recently read Bill Brysons book about Australia. Del.


Ann  Van Breemen   {K:11828} 12/26/2005
Great photo, Ann. Nice to see what you look like at last, even if it is an old one. I can't imagine you've changed much over the years. Merry Xmas to you and Rod. I'll be in touch again soon. Cheers, Ann.


Marco D.S.   {K:5604} 12/26/2005
Nice to meet you Ann! you give me the idea: maybe I'll post an image of myself... Cheers, Marco

Hiya Ann....I knew you would be lovely by the way you expressed yourself on UF. I wasn't prepared to see that you were DROP-DEAD GORGEOUS. What a beautiful looking girl you are...you may say that it was taken a few years ago but I already know that you are even more beautiful now.

With UF going off-line just before the holidays I missed the opportunity of sending greetings to all my Special Friends.. I hope you had a wonderful time and that Father Christmas looked after you on Christmas morning.. I'll be posting and commenting early in 2006 until then...

.......HAPPY NEW YEAR Sweetie.
Be lucky..Be happy.....Hugs...Ray

Mireille Heirendt   {K:7258} 12/28/2005
Hi Ann,
Thanks so much for your visit and so glad to meet you in person...very nice image indeed!!
I have had a few occasions so far to test my new lens and it IS great...a little too heavy at the beginning (not used to the weight) but now all ok.
Still very busy...will try to browse a little more through your portfolio in the evening and let you know...now at work (lunch time).
Cheers, Mireille


Andrzej Pradzynski   {K:21408} 12/28/2005
HiHiHi Ann, great idea and very conceptual. It's already late for Christmas greetings but have a great New Year a prosperous one filled with happines and smiles. n.j

Best wishes!
Roberto.


Larry Donnelly   {K:1190} 12/29/2005
Nice to see the person behind the emails, you aren't going to break out into Tiny Bubbles or start humming the Hawaii Five-O theme song are you now.

I haven't been myself lately, probably do to the accident in the photoshop lab. See attached. Promise not to look at this photo on New Years Day, you might swear off liquor forever.

Bad Face Day


Ann Nida   {K:45230} 12/30/2005
I love this photo and I will treasure it forever. I will try to refrain from looking at this photo on New Years Day but it will be difficult. If ever I'm feeling down I will just look at this photo to cheer me up. I hope you recover soon. :) Thanks for the chuckles Larry.

Cheers - Ann :)


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 12/30/2005
Happy New Year to you, Ann, and many wishes for a great 2006! Hugs, Ina


stingRay part 2 .   {K:139399} 1/1/2006
HAPPY NEW YEAR sweet Ann. I had hoped to post something today but I have picked up serious computer problems which probably means a re-build or a hard kick..'See' you again soon my love. Best wishes..Ray


Shaun Rullens   {K:2594} 1/1/2006
Wow Ann, your a cutie!!

Ann got one photo of Orion up, I named him after the constellation - Orion "The Hunter" It was taken with the cheap digital. Can't wait till I get the 35mm developed. I really don't like this digital camera that I have. It a fuji finepix a340.

Happy New Year..I posted a self portrait for the first time too..but yours is so cool


Sai .   {K:2757} 1/6/2006
Hey Ann,

Happy new year to you too! Hope you had a nice one...Wish you a very exciting year ahead..with more shooting and flying.

This picture is very representative of you...filled with life..!


josep alsina   {K:19880} 1/7/2006
Gracias, gracias por tus buenos deseos de Navidad y muy bueno tu autoretrato. Guapa! guapa! y guapa! y Olé! olé! y olé. Un cordial saludo de
Josep


Roger Williams   {K:83282} 1/12/2006
Nice to see a picture of you, Ann. I particularly like the garland in your hair... Many of us use pictures taken by others for "Pictures of Our Members," I know I did. You look very photogenic. If you ever come to Japan I'll show you around if you let me practice portraits on you. Deal?


Ann Nida   {K:45230} 1/12/2006
Thank you for your flattering comment Roger. Would you like me to bring the garland? (haha) Thanks for the offer but I really do prefer to be on the other side of the camera. I don't like looking down the barrel of the camera. I will, however, take you up on the offer to show me around though if I get over your way. :)

Cheers - Ann :)


j esford   {K:13357} 4/4/2006
Oh my Ann, I'm sorry I missed this party! Perhaps next year can we count on some blinking lights? That would really be cool!
In all sincerity, a beautiful smile from a beautiful woman who takes beautiful photographs! Thanks for sharing your stuff! -john
