- Please link back to the permalink for your {In The Picture} blog post or flickr image, not just the general url for your blog or flickr stream.
- Linked entries must be to a blog post or flickr image of your recent self-portraits, not just any old photo. Your photo does not have to relate to the optional monthly theme, but it does need to be a self-portrait. Links will be moderated and removed if they do not comply with this rule, sorry :)
- Please do link back here to my blog either through a text link, or with my button found below.
- And most importantly, be the encouragement you hope to receive. Please try to visit a few of the links from your fellow {In The Picture} participants and leave a nice comment--it only takes a few minutes and you may be inspired by what you see :)
- The linky will stay open until Thursday, January 3rd. Hope to see you here!
And, as I have mentioned before, I won't be doing this project here on the blog again in 2013. BUT, I am going to keep our flickr group going if you'd like to join me there.
If you are looking for something more, there are also some wonderful self-portrait e-courses going on in 2013, so check out these links if you are interested in continuing your selfie pursuit and want a little more structure and encouragement:
- You can check out Vivienne McMaster's lovely work here, and sign up for her You Are Your Own Muse course by clicking here.

Thank you, thank you, thank you- I never would have done this without your inspiration -and I'm so glad i did.
Wishing you a wonderful 2013 xx
I joined your monthly selfie meme in July for the planking challenge. It's been fun and inspiring doing these every month. I'll keep tabs on the flickr group for 2013.
Thank you for the 2012 year of selfies meet up.
wishing you all the best in the New Year.
I have enjoyed watching your images this year. I hope you go back and compare them to the work you did the previous year. I think you will see amazing differences. Your lead image is really cool-love the pop of red. Thank you for all the time that went into this. It was totally a success.
I will keep taking selfies and look forward to seeing you "in the picture" on Flickr. Happy New Year!!
Thank YOU! This has been an amazing, and inspiring, journey. And I´ve loved every single moment shared with you all.
Wishing you all the best in 2013 xx
Love all of these pics - such creative people there are in the world! I´m bummed that I haven´t been able to do any more self portraits for so long, but I constantly have it in my mind - so eventually it will happen! :-)
This was such a fun experience to participate in. My celebrate pic will come later on ... I'm going out for new year's eve!!
Thank you for hosting. xo
Leanne said it perfectly. Many thanks for the work you put into this all year, your own shared images, and the wonderful self-portrait artists you've introduced me to. And I don't mean just the ones you interviewed, but every one who participated. Like Leanne, I'm so glad I did it.
Wishing you a happy and creative new year. I hope to "see you around."
A big thank you to you for leading us on this journey. I learned so much from you and the other who participated. Happy 2013 -- see you on flicker!
Thank you, Christy, for the inspiration for this project - it's been a ton of fun for me!
A big thank you, Christy, for your devoted monthly meeting place here on your blog. I have enjoyed all your own self-portraits so creative and inspirational. I have even found joy in getting out of my comfort zone and it has been a rewarding experience which has especially played a role in looking within and not just at the plastic external image we have of ourselves! I feel as if I have come full circle! Warm greetings, Sandra
Thank you to all those who have taken part in this year-long adventure for:

You inspire and ignite and invigorate the photographer inside of me. I consider you to be my Muse.
Thank you.
Here's to a super fantastic 2013 !!
