Date Uploaded: Mar 20, 2007

 Taken at night in my bedroom in front of a vanity mirror. I just set the camera on a tripod, lit some candles and played around with the aperture and shutter speed. Ended up with this shot. Post picture, I turned it to black and white, pumped up the contrast a bit, tuned down the exposure slightly and cropped.

I really like the image, but it looks like the model (you?) are setting your hair on fire.

Nice shadow contrast on subjects face, but seems a little out of focus.

The angle of the mirror makes it hard to understand the focus of the shot. Yet it is a sharp picture and it is an interesting composition. 8.

This is a bit confusing. I like the half face created but is that another person behind her? I think that's hair? Or is that a reflection. Wish it were just a black background. She's quite lovely.
