Mirror Shot

This is my feeble attempt at taking a picture of myself in the mirror. I had just had my hair cut and I thought it looked nice, but Grandma and Grandpa had taken the children to a park to ride bikes, and I was home alone. I decided to give it a try. The pictures that turned out look terrible - my eyes are looking in a strange direction and the field is far too small. Mostly what you can see is my expansive forehead.

So, I'm posting this terrible shot. It's not a bad picture of me, if you can get past all the glare and light spots. If anyone knows any tricks to remove the spots and glare, let me know.

you could try cropping the picture to get the glare out.
Take the photo again using no flash, and there would be no glare like that.
If you have a timer, you can re-take it and not use a mirror.
I don't think it's a bad photo at all, a lot of people do this, it's art-sy.
I have a prgram called Picasa, by Google..it's a free downloadable program for pictures that I use to fix most of the shots I take. It's super easy and the program will find your photos on your computer for you.
