The new me

[gsh]

Due to popular demand, here are a few pics our friend Heather took of me at lunch yesterday.











I'm not fishing for compliments, but if you think I look better with the beard, I won't be offended by a simple "I think the beard looks better on you".

I wouldn't have recognized you if we passed in a crowd! You're still handsome but I think a beard suits you better.

Also, I get a 404 on: http://members.cox.net/greg.hennessy/DSCN2322.JPG

Wow! Yeah, it does make you into a different person. I think I like it, though I'd have to see it in person. Of course you look younger, and weirdly enough, you look ... smarter? The close-up of you smiling at the camera comes across as smart, has a sense of humor, with a bit of an attitude.

I like how your smile is less harshly outlined now. Your smile extends across your face now rather than be confined by your beard.

You have a chin!!!

You look good. You don't look like you, though. In fact, you look like my friend Jeff. Which is kind of bizarre. But you look good.

Yea, that was out of focus, so I deleted the link. You may need to hit refresh to see the current version, since I've been tweaking the images.

You have a chin!!!

Pam told me I had two of them.

Ouch!

So cute!!!!

It definitely changes your face, but in a fun way. I agree with reedrover - the shot of you smiling at the camera makes you look all smart and engaging and stuff. On the other hand, I still like the beard look too.

I've always thought you were a cutie, but I like the beard :)

I like it, although I don't think I'd recognize you if I ran into you. =)

[gsh]

Well, I'd recognize you, so I guess that would work well enough.

My gods man, you look at least 10 years younger without the beard. I think it is a great look for you.

Wow! You look like a youngster. I like the new look.

You know what's weird, is you look about the same to me. Of course, I don't know you very well.

I dunno, I like it. I'm not sure where "two chins" comes from. You look good to me. Not significantly younger or older. A little more academic, maybe.

It's just SO different I don't know what else to say. Maybe after I get used to it for a bit.

[rdhdsnippet.livejournal.com]

Actually, I thought nearly the same.

I actually don't hate it, and I expected to. Somehow it doesn't look all that different to me. You still look like you. :)

I still like the slightly different hair.

The pictures look great.

I think you look better with a beard. :) But then I'm biased. That said, the first picture is a good one of you. We should keep it.
