"Pain in the Glass"
Today's portrait is a self-portrait....of me. I recently viewed a portrait of someone in the rain.....bu realized it may take a while before it rains in Los Angeles again. I got tired of waiting outside, so I decided to shoot it indoors. I hung a piece of glass, sprayed it with a mixture of water and glycerin (it sticks better than water alone), and focused on the glass. Focusing on the glass was crucial....because I didn't want to see my mug. The result is a surprisingly creamy appearance to the skin, and I love the texture on the glass. I think the contrast in these textures is what almost makes this interesting. Just for a little separation, I snooted a speedlight and shot it against the canvas background. Thanks for dripping by!!
