Self portrait, my first Strobist pool submission. Inspired by another strobist with similar equipment. I wasn't going for anything earth-shattering here, rather just trying to learn how to use my lights.
Strobist info:
Camera right: Alien Bees B400 at full power, pointed at background (100" projector screen), 20 degree grid and blue gel. Triggered by Cactus V4.
Camera left: AlienBees B800 at 3/8 power, pointed at shirt, 10 degree grid.
Ring flash / fill: Rayflash and 430 EX II, 1/8 +0.7, 24mm, triggered by Cactus V4.
Taken with Samyang 8mm fisheye at 1/160s, f/16, ISO 100.
Messing around with my 55-200mm lens today in the garden, I got a bit wind swept + was squinting in most of the photos cause it was rather sunny. :')
PLEASE, NO invitations or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks.
Lady was reading a book in Crysler Hall.
The Doric columns of this imposing structure, each made from one great pine tree, were moved from the original site when Crysler Hall was taken down and reconstructed in Upper Canada Village. It was originally built by John Pliny Crysler, a timber merchant. He was the son of the John Crysler upon whose farm the Battle of Crysler's Farm, had been fought (part of the War of 1812).
Crysler Hall was built as a residence. The sweeping circular drive, cast iron fence and formal gardens all add to the dignity of this fine example of Greek revival architecture. It is not typical of most houses of the period, and would have been considered pompous by most residents. The gardens all emphasize the Victorian interest in flower gardens as part of the landscape, and complement the architecture of Crysler Hall.
The interior of Crysler Hall is modern, and contains exhibits related to Upper Canada Village and the history of the area.
I think of you all the time.

In my quest for a more realistic look I can find myself being a little self defeating.
In this instance and with the whole growing my own hair experiment I have noticed that I have aged a lot. OK not that bad I know and we all age. But with a full wig and full makeup I can look 40 something as opposed to looking 50 something .
I know that's vanity playing its part. the question is at what point do I revert back to wig and makeup? if I don't then how do I move forward especially in the hair department.
would hormones help and if so is that going to change who I am. If I go down that route am I heading for a permanent change. how do I go about it??????
Questions questions.
I keep asking myself why I take pictures. Why am I photographer? The truth is....I'm not sure. I've always liked creating things and being an introvert, photography was something I could do on my own.
I enjoy documenting the world around me and a lot of my photos are around my house because I just don't get out that often or I don't bring my camera with me enough when I do get out.
One of the best things about being a generalist in photography, I can shoot whatever I want which is great but it also means I'll never be really good one particular genre. I've never really been good at anything in life, photography has really been the only thing that people actually seem to like from me. That makes me happy and brings joy to my life when people enjoy my work.
As you may have noticed, I'm not as active on Flickr as I once was. Flickr has become a big time suck for me, I was spending hours and hours a day looking at other peoples photos and usually commenting on them but that was taking time away from me and It may sound selfish but I need time to work on me to become a better person and a better photographer. I also want to get back into making YouTube videos as well.
I don't know. I was Lightroom and I saw this photo of me being reflected in this hubcap and kind of had one of those self reflection moments about why I take pictures. I've been too hard on myself lately when it comes to photography. It's suppose to be a fun thing, I shouldn't stress out over it.
I realized that I focused so much on the numbers and that's not what photography is about.
So I want to have fun taking pictures again, I don't want to think about whether or not people will like this photo or not because in the end, it doesn't matter. I'm the only one who has to like it and if others don't, they that's fine too. I enjoy sharing my photos with the world because that one photo could make a difference in someone out there. It could put a smile on that one person that's having a real bad day. That's worth it to me.
If you read all of this, Thank you. Means a lot ot me.

Sorry, but I've always thought the "selfie" idea was a bit too unreal. Not like its narcissistic or anything, but how many times do we want to see ourselves? I'm always afraid I'll get bored, which might explain my not caring for mirrors either. So when I realized the drops each held a tiny image of me, or the end of the macro lense, well you can image my relief as I saw the black circle. Who cares what a lens' glass looks like?

I went to お花見(cherry-blossom viewing) after the English class.
It was very beautiful. We walked a lot, so sleepy.

Doing self portraits is great to experiment with new technics,
You can spend hours moving lights around and not bother anyone :P
What you need :
- A camera
- One flash
- a black background
I am using it as my facebook cover too (hens the 851x315 crop)
Oh, and BTW, I'm starting a new video project called "A Day in photo" www.videos.teomorabito.com to see if you like it ;)
I will be making one of these every week I've decided :)
As always, My photographs are available as prints and digital use.
