Self (This week's Photo Hunt theme)

Having missed last week's Photo Hunt, looked forward to returning to taking part in this Saturday -- and often into Sunday as well -- activity. At the same time, as many regular visitors to this blog know, I'm not at all keen on taking or putting up pictures of myself on the internet -- so this week's Photo Hunt theme looked to pose a bit of a problem for me. And how much can be seen by the above grainy photo being the only snapshot I've ever conscientiously taken of (a part of) myself!

Re the photo itself: The story behind it is that there's a cinema over here in Hong Kong with a particular art-house reputation and accordingly art-house type lighting in the corridor that you go into on the way out of a theatre into the street. In particular, the overwhelmingly green lighting reminds a friend of mine and me of that which prominently features in Wong Kar Wai's Fallen Angels; and so much so that we wonder whether one got the lighting idea from the other! In any case, it can make for quite the cool visual effect, don't you think? ;)
