 Taken at my piano, which unfortunately isn't much more than a photographic prop these days. Maybe someday when I'm not so busy. Sigh.

I did this same thing for the 30-day self-portrait challenge back in the spring, and I really liked it. I just realized that of the four challenges I've entered in the past six months, two of them have been retakes from those thirty days.

Lit by my SB-600 flash, reflected backward onto a white sheet pinned up into a kind of tent around me.

Nice focus and perspective. It leaves me wanting more and I can't put my finger on it. Maybe if shot from an angle where we see part of your body as well, just not your face.

Nicely balanced and just enough detail and content to make the title almost unnecessary. Good image for this challenge.
