This are two of many self-portraits done by Angus McBean. He would make one every year, between 1936 and 1989, and send it out to his friends and family in the form of a Christmas card. I really like McBean's photography, and the way he juxtaposed different elements - he was the master of photoshopping before computers existed. I also like the idea of a new self portrait every year - reinventing himself each winter and sending the results off to the people he knew.
