Annie_Girl Loc: It's none of your business
 
I was waiting on a client last night and I decided to test out some lighting, and I needed a new photo for my self project ( I am wearing my swim shorts and a full shirt, lol)

I like the concept...but a bigger depth of field would help get your feet and shoes in focus

What is there not to like, a great try, can you just edit out the small black piece on the right hip

Ya the dof is off, I had my aperture at f/3.0 when it should have been around 5.6 at least for this. I really suck at self portraits , especially when I use the timer not a wireless trigger.

JR1 that black piece is my swim shorts.

I agree with the others Annie - "What's not to Like". Greater dof would have given not only the shoes a better look but also the "Tatt". Do more please.

Don't know what happened there - Your shot is posted with my reply - how did that happen?

I need to replace my wireless trigger, i am too old and over weight to run back and get myself in the right spot before the shutter snaps. Lmao

I've been working on a 365 project of self portraits that really just focus on my legs, feet and my collection of shoes.

Thank you. PalePictures.
I hate having my picture taken and my husband challenged me to do a 365 project that focused on me, it's been a challenge. I would rather be behind the camera.
Rlaugh, thanks.

Thanks. It's hard to come up with ideas for a selfie and keeping your face out of the photo. I have no idea what I am going to do tomorrow, thankfully I have 100 pair of shoes so at least I can mix that part up a little.

What a great idea! A selfie a day. I like your pic, but agree on removing the swimsuit on the hip.

Thank you. If I try this pose again I will adjust the f stop to allow for a larger for a larger area in focus and edit out the swim suit.
