Self Portrait

Spontaneous shoot with my girlfriend. No cutting or pasting involved... your thoughts??

Colors/Contrast is/are EXCELLENT! was this taken with a fisheye? How'd you get such a great result?

what I think? PHENOMENAL!!! Just brilliant. Could you please share how you achieved this?

 

wonderful 7/7

No cutting or pasting. But 2 questions:

 

1. What lighting?

2. Is this HDR?

 

Congratulations on a great shot.

This is really a quite simple setup. Fish-eye lens, sun for backlighting, and one strobe to our left for the fill light. And one beautiful girlfriend... :)

Awsome - So Awsome !

Very, very impressive. Amazing shot. Very creative.

Nice work. Excellent pose.

excellent self ..... fun creative with humor

Totally cool. One of the best I have seen. Lighting just confused me and thanks for the explanation, without it I could not believe there was no pasting involved. Spontaneous pose has been totally the winner for this picture. You should try more such pictures without the hand held camera, It is quite phenomenal.

HOLY COW!!! This is really good!

Great lighting and colors!

Excellent! Tells a story.

A superb shot with a story to tell !!

Hi Justin.

 

Excellent photo, superb... well done ;-)

Every details are wonderful. Colors fantastic.The magic of "Spontaneous" ;)

Purdy ferkin kool!!! Hey, is that I-80 in the background???

Wow!!!!

 

Great timing...

Shots like this are the reason that I get excited about photography. Great job!

Why am I the only one asking the stupid question? How'd you take into the sun?? Stunning!

Great fun, great lighting. And while I don't know you, it looks like "you". If it feels that way, that makes it the perfect self-portrait. I think the rolled-up sleeves really make it more interesting visually, and part of the fun beyond the disappearing hands. Very creative.

 

Great stuff!
