Self portrait in Mirror. [Contest Finalists June 2008]
Uploaded: June 07, 2008 00:29:56
f/4.5, 1/80 secs, ISO 200, Lens 28-90 mm. This shot was taken in natural sunlight from window in my bathroom mirror. I took about 20 shots to get the correct framing. It becomes very difficult to frame self in the mirror when camera is held in the hands. I hope you all like it. No editing. Catagory People. Have a nice weekend.

Tarun, this self portait is Outstanding. Excellent light, and pose. I've done this in the mirror with not such great results. I also like the lines of the window, definition in your shutter hand and the time on your watch...makes for a very interesting portrait. #6062820William C. Raco June 17, 2008
