Challenge: Camera "Self Portrait" (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Canon EOS-350D Rebel XT
Lens: Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro
Location: Belmont, NSW Australia
Date: Aug 15, 2006
Aperture: 32
ISO: 100
Shutter: 2 Seconds
Galleries: Portraiture
Date Uploaded: Aug 15, 2006

 Used a hard drive platter which is like a mirror with a hole in it.
This would have worked heaps better with my 50mm len but the aperture is stuck at f2.8 at the moment so I couldn't get a long enough DOF to keep the front of the lense and back of the camera in focus.
I think a black background would have been better too.
I need my Update Button this week so in it goes.
USM, Crop, Levels, curves and selective colour.

Looks like you have been through validation, congratulations, I figured someone would turn this in. Some people can't venture outside their box and see a cleaver idea. I wish the mirror(I guess that is hat that is) was more centered on the lens and looks like it's time to clean the sensor as well. 7
