APR 13

I'm sometimes amazed by such a little *camera*. But it is a reminder that
image making is more about lighting than necessarily have a fancy camera.
Not that I'm against a fancy camera LOL, but, well, good lighting helps...
even if, as in this case, it comes from desklamps.

Excellent self portrait. I always frown when I take my own picture.

It´s so true what you say about the light. I am learning..

You are one bad ass with that Powershot! And as usual, right on point about the fancy camera. I think you also missed the fact that in addition to the light you also need someone with the proper genetics to compose the frame inside of the viewfinder...

Awesome, as usual! The vivid color and lighting really set your eyes off.

Wonderful shot.
(btw, next time remember to bring a razor with you in your 3-days tomb-trip) lol

Indeed! Great image, your eyes just pop out!

I like the lighting and colors! Very nice! However... you're looking at that little LCD that shows you what you're taking a picture of on the camera instead of the lens, aren't you? :)

So true CJ...so True (The photoshop skills help too ;) )

very nice composition and use of lighting. I like the ponderous expression.

I'll tell you what...I am trying REALLY hard to catch up to you in Self Portraits! I'm slowly catchin up! :-) Nice one.

Neat shot... for 3 years the only thing I took pictures with was a PowerShot S100.... It is amazing what the little camera will do... If the light is good and the shot is composed well, it doesn't matter what camera you use!
Guest 13-Apr-2004 03:13
Amazing colors!
Guest 13-Apr-2004 02:58
It IS a cool shot, but alot has to do with the dude behind....erm.....IN front of it!!
