\"5<\/a><\/p>\n

I recently discovered a treasure trove (?) of really stupid self portraits that collected in my computer over the years while I was working out of a particular office. May 2009 to January, 2014 – 5 years in 5 seconds (approximately).<\/p>\n

The camera in this Mac has seen a lot – mostly me answering email and the phone, photo-correcting client images, puzzling out strings of html, css, js, and php – but also me surfing the net and taking questionable pictures of myself when I might have been working a little more diligently.<\/p>\n

The images were not created out of vanity – well, not many of them, anyway. It’s hard to be vain when your first reaction upon seeing a camera lens is to act like a total dipstick. Instead, I created them over the years to illustrate the point, complete the joke, startle the timid, annoy the serious, and, of course, to waste the time.<\/p>\n

Far more images were deleted than retained as I discarded what didn’t work or deleted them used off the machine after twisting them to my purposes. Somehow, though, 62 images remained extant in Photo Booth’s little queue.<\/p>\n

Well, you know me: so many of the images were of a series that I decided I wanted to see them put together as a kind of time lapse in the form of an animated gif. Natch.<\/p>\n

I was *so* amused by the results (don’t I appear to be, always? Makes you a little sick after a while, doesn’t it?) I felt compelled to share the silliness. Some little sections, such as the phone series<\/a>, are great on their own. At least I think so.<\/p>\n

Of course I do.<\/p>\n

And so, with no further ado, I give you 5 years in 5 seconds (approximately):<\/p>\n
