It’s been a long time since the last post – got a bit busy.

Here’s another self-portrait. I wanted it to turn out real scary. Used the built-in flash – We haven’t bought an SB-x00 yet (Saving for a D90, yay!).

It took me a lot of shots to get this one correctly – had to adjust my hand to the right angle. Used a very narrow mirror in the living room.

Had breakfast with family this morning. Forced to do a photoshoot afterwards. Haha!

I always wanted to get my self portrait using a mirror but it never turns out right. During the “photoshoot”, I spotted a mirror and took a few shots of myself. I needed flash since the room was a bit dark, but I couldn’t fire it directly since it would ruin my mirror shot. What I did was cover my flash with my hand, leaving space for the light to reflect nicely. If only we had our sb-x00 already!
