A Great self-portrait Jack. something I try to do sometimes, but never thought of becoming the invisible man :) I usualy tend to multiply myself. Well done.

Powerful - I think I have been scarredd by too much news of be-headings so this gives me an emotional jolt. Hopefully you are in a situation where you have figuratively `lost your head` (*_*). As a consequence this might be a celebration image.

Hah! Most ingenious composition. Reflective as always, your proposition is clever and intriguing. Yes, it could be a self portrait, but then again, it could be someone else. Blurred by motion....washed out background and the identity of the subject. Original and creative, no doubt. Enjoyable? Definitely!

Thanks for the comments. I discover my own thinking in the pictures I take. This isn't surprising since I took the pictures. They illustrate all those influences that have helped shape my particular understanding of the world. This one reminded me of something that Gary Winogrand once said, that he liked street photography because he could disappear when he was taking pictures. The way I interpreted what he said made perfect sense to me. The whole idea is to leave yourself and all the accompanying baggage behind.
