SP Friday

Another working week bites the dust which means only one thing... yep, it's SP FRIDAY!! I've been thinking about this shot most of the afternoon as the candle's been burning at both ends this week and after five minutes for lunch I was just longing to be in this place again (on my bed)!!

Shot slightly earlier this week, (there was a similar SP last Friday), there was more of the evening sun streaming through the window and some was reflecting off the mirrored wardrobe to give the slightly unusual lighting.... Have a great SP Friday!!

Canon EOS 10D ,Canon EF 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5 USM
1/160s f/5.0 at 24.0mm iso200 full exif

Geez, I'm with the rest of the girls here, Ian! This is a great, sexy shot of a very handsome man with great eyes! The perspective is awesome, too! Good grief, I really have to go through this gallery NOW, lol.

twitter . . . (didn't want to be out of step with the rest)

The lighting on this is quite unusual. And the wrinkles of the bed seems
to sort of radiate out. All in all, the is one of your best images
(among a sea of fine images) and certainly one of the best self-portraits
I've ever seen anywhere. Extremely well done.

Excellent shot!
Carmen25-Jun-2004 22:45
I love the lighting and angle in this one. The light illuminating your left eye is way cool.
Guest 25-Jun-2004 22:40
Very nicely done, Ian - the mirror idea works fabulously!
Guest 25-Jun-2004 22:31
DEB took this?? OK then SHE rules! Can she come take some of TR for me...maybe that's what I need!!!
Robin Reid25-Jun-2004 22:24
Ian ... great shot.... must be a kick for you to have the "girls" all a twitter.
And what did you and your wife do after she took the shot? ;-)
Karen Leaf25-Jun-2004 22:23
Can we have SP Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday........ REALLLLLLY nice.
Ian Chappell25-Jun-2004 22:14
Phew thank GOD for Ray's comment!!

Angela: Actually Deb took the shot, I just directed where I wanted my eyes to be and let her do the rest, like pressing the shutter... Deb: "Is this a new camera, what's the fat thing on the bottom?" (BG-ED3 just fitted!!)

Jude: Err... I inverted the picture, so really I'm lying on the bed. Just tightened the crop and burnt in the edges a tad and dodged the eyes... Why am I naked... use your imagination!!
Ray :)25-Jun-2004 21:57
I can't see what all the fuss is about, girls....
jude25-Jun-2004 21:52
Ian? why are you naked? and why are you looking up into your attic just as you push open the door?

Okay.. that's what I see..lol This SP is great.. love the b&w here and the look on your face.
Guest 25-Jun-2004 21:29
