Hi Bob, Jeri and Larry, thank you for the warm welcome and great advice which I took by heart! Here is the result of another attempt, after a more daring balancing act on a chair by the bathroom mirror. The physical constraints of the space and problematic lightning seriously limited the options of composition, and it was quite tricky to get the angle of the hand-held mirror right. The ambitious aim was to create a Duane Michals -like impression of endless reflections.
I tried all the lenses we have in the family, but the original zoom 18-55 at focal distance of 50, f 11, 1/60 s seemed to work best. I decided to turn it black-and-white. The strap is off!
If you like this one better, I can ask Joan to switch it to my profile image, and, anyway, she also has in store a conventional head shot taken by my husband. |
