September 2012 - Self portraits taken in a mirror

[Marko]

Hi members,

This month's level 2 assignment is Self portraits taken in a mirror. Loads of room for fun and creativity here.

Ok then who will post first?

Here is one I shot a couple months ago and posted here, but this has a little different post editing

Nice start AT - I like the reflections in the different planes.

Here's mine, tried to give an old look to it, kinda made it fuzzy but oh well.

Awesome shot, Jude. Looks like you are getting ready for a 50's sock hop. :)

Great start AT and Jude.

Jude - I think the fuzziness and grain adds to that old time look.

[Iguanasan]

It doesn't compare with what's already been posted but at least I managed to get one in this time :)

Buck up little feller, it can't be that bad. :)

Cool stuff everyone!

[Marko]

You kinda got the mona lisa smile goin' there iggy. I dig the mirror against that brighter background.

[Iguanasan]

I didn't realize until later that I was spending more time trying to rig up the shot than paying attention to my expression ;)

But, I wanted to post something for the challenge! :)

I was having a hard time coming up with a creative way to accomplish this assignment...until I took my wife and son to the philadelphia zoo.....

Pretty cool mbrager and the camera does you justice!
Justinryan - Like the comp and the sneaky factor.

Last day and I'm gonna get one in soon I hope.

[Marko]

Here's mine. Very difficult shoot.

[Iguanasan]

Nice additions, mbrager, justinryan, and Marko!

[Matt K.]

Marko, that is beyond cool .....

thanks Matt and Iggy - It was straight out of camera as well.
Severely cropped mind you, and needed more time and patience for sharper focus....but I got it in, in time :)
