Did you add texture?

Beautiful! Is it a self portrait? Any tips or tricks for setting up self portraits?

I did add textures to this. I used a black background, but I thought a little texture on this would give it more character.

I have my camera on a tripod, and I put my light stand where I will be standing and focus on that. I then set it to manual focus, so when I press the shutter it won't try and focus. I use the timer, and get in place. I might get the first few with me in bad positioning(getting cut off), but once I figure out the perfect spot, we're good to go.

Thanks for all the comments.

Great picture. I'm semi jealous i didn't take a picture like that with my son when he was smaller.

Very nice... Hang that one for sure... The pp works really well and the focus is sharp--particularly for a self-portrait. Thanks for sharing
