After reviewing your feedback on last week's photomontage design challenge and knowing that you truly enjoyed the experience, I think it's time for another great design challenge...
Do you recognize the picture on the left? That's Sharbat Gula, an Afghan woman whose photo became the world's most famous portrait after appearing on the cover of National Geographic magazine in 1985.
In this week's challenge, we're concentrating on self portraits, having just covered this in today's article: How to Take Excellent Portrait Photos
Will you possibly be the face of the next world famous portrait? You certainly have the power to do it! Are you ready for the challenge? Go grab your camera and get ready for some serious fun!
