Self Portrait #1

This is from a class assignment thatwas intended to emulate the techniquesof Richard Avedon. Not very original but I got the technique. I was required to wear something white and have it show against the background. Which itself was required to blown out two stops. I think I had like three spots shining just on the background.

I'm more of a blue jeans and t-shirt sort of guy. Not usually a cow poke. Though that's fun. :)

Unfortunately, I can't seem to get the hat's texture to show. Though it shows in hi-res, it gets lost with JPEG compression.
