Default Self portrait...

I finally got my umbrellas, got 2 stands and bracket so I set the camera up on a tripod, stood between the 2 flashes and took a photo.

I had one flash on 1/4 to 1/8 power, the other on 1/128 or OFF.

using IR remote, AF and just stood between the 2 umbrellas like an muppet (feels really weird on this side) and took a photo.

I love the details and the qualities of such on display - there is a brilliant sense of clarity to your images.

I LOVE the first pic. The second is a bit intense, but the first is a lot more fun. It suggests a self depreciative side, a bit of humour, and shows a bit of your discomfort at being on the lens end. It's also interesting in that you are looking up, showing that you have a highly visual memory, which is probably to be expected in someone who spends thier time working with visual images...
