Hanging out tonight, watching 24, and just for fun decided to toss my hat into the ring with a self portrait. Decided on the top-down approach and adjusted in photoshop. EF 50 f/1.8 on digital rebel with 420EX. Av mode at f/2.5 gave a 1/15 sec exposure at ISO 200. camera held at arm's length above my head. Thanks!

I know! Digital is what has made creative photography accessible to the masses. I think that is the main reason the film-****s get so worked up; the curtain has been pulled back and the Wizard is chimping over in the corner.

"Everywhere I go I'm asked if I think the university stifles writers. My opinion is that they don't stifle enough of them." - Flannery O'Connor (1925-1964)

The same might have been said about film photography in the age of digital.
