Photo Booth Digital Photo and Video Application

Today you will use the software application Photo Booth to take a photograph of yourself for your self-portrait graphic art project.

You may spend the entire period using the Photo Booth application. Try the different built in effects to enhance your photograph. You may take "buddy pictures", but remember, your goal is to end the day with a photograph to use as a model for your self-portrait.
