Challenge: Self Portrait VI (Advanced Editing V*)
Camera: Samsung Pro815
Date: Dec 2, 2007
Date Uploaded: Dec 2, 2007

 Trial and error with the help of my beautiful girlfriend [user]mikaylaraine[/user] to figure this out. Final destination was a piece of posterboard with a 1/2 inch or so slit cut in it. The slit was moved over the lens for each third of the picture. 10 second exposure with the opening in the posterboard covered for complete darkeness while I moved and Shelly moved the placement of the opening. A LOT of trial and error and half heads later I got something close enough to work with.

I know i'm not PERFECTLY in focus, but like i said, it was a lot of half heads...
PP is mostly to darken up my pale white skin, and burn the background to make it more seamless. Unsharp Mask also...
