I feel so sorry for Mr P.

I'll know in a couple of weeks if they'll let me back into the country. The amazing thing is that they accepted me in NZ. Granny from hell!

Plan it carefully, do not smile but lift the corners of your lips slightly as if abut to break into a smile. It is undetectable as a smile, but improves the resulting photo no end.

Isn’t it a wonder any of us who travel are allowed back into the country?

Don't they do airbrushing ? Skinny things.No imagination.

My passport photo doesn't look anything like me. Yes, the wrinkly old woman is me but why aren't we allowed to smile any more? It's the glum frowning expression that helps to make me look as if I'm on the run!

Mine was taken for a new passport a few weeks ago and I look like sodapop as though I have spent a few years in prison and have not come to terms with anything.

It is done, I do not have to look at it again as it is only for ID when I give up my driving licence.

I look OK on photos but I don't look like me. No, that's not bragging - false hair, false teeth, someone else entirely. Not what I planned

I look like an escapee from Prisoner Cell Block H - really grim.

Purpledaffodil while looking at some household hints stuff on YouTube recently, I succumbed to "click bait" and found myself learning about how to look slimmer in photos by using sellotape!

I had my passport photos taken at a shop which gives a digital code to put straight into the application form. It's absolutely awful. The one taken in the photo booth for my bus pass was much better. I actually looked under 100 in it.

Ooh a Burkha sounds good Phoenix Personally I’d like a big bulldog clip on the back of my neck to get rid of that turtle neck I’ve developed. ?

I never realised until I had my photo taken at the PO that I appear in black and white.
(hence the refund, not the glowering 'approach me if you dare' expression).

Oh I hate those photo booth results so much

Had one taken for a bus pass.....would have felt bad enough if my Mother had appeared in print but, shock horror, it was Granny?

When younger my photo was at least passable but now whenever I see a camera appear I scuttle away. A good time to slip away for a loo visit.?

I think some evil wizardry has taken place in my sleep as the face in the mirror/ photographs definitely does not belong to my body!!!

H ha

I went to the Post Office to have some new passport photos taken - they were so bad that even DH accompanied me to the counter to complain about them.

We got a refund.

However, the next place I had them done wasn't much better, but at least they didn't make me look like a fugitive from justice.
I look like someone no-one could argue with.
