For the SG theme of self portrait. In this case, there's five of me...I know, that's 5 too many!

I placed the camera on a tripod and changed clothes for the different poses, then combined the images using Photoshop's Layer Mask feature.

Exif: F Number: 16, Exposure Bias Value: -0.67, ExposureTime: 1/40 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 160, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 24.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 30D

I am glad John commented on this as I had forgotten it. This may not be the place to ask but have you ever been diagnosed with multiple personalities??...:):)
