I had to renew my passport photo a short time ago . So I decided to take it myself, against going into a photobooth or have it done professionally. Reading up on the requirements (for a UK passport) they wanted a head and shoulders shot taken at a fixed distance . So meeting their requirements I did a "selfie" short against a plain wall at around 4/5ft away with the right lens. . Have to say as it was the first time of doing this I was pleased I got a nice colour photo of myself. Next into editing just to adjust the photo to the requied size, nothing else. Great sent it of to the passport office and what did they do? convert it into a bad black and white version which pissed me off after all that trouble I went to. So now I have a passport showing a monster (looks nothing like me but it is) in the passport document.
With all the money the passport government department have access to they can only reproduce crap photos.
I wonder what the equivilant is requirements are overseas?
Oh and I am such a good looking guy as well
