Default The Dak Side - First Self Portrait

Hey everyone, I got bored a few nights back and thought I'd try out some self-photography, all I used in this shot was a tripod, self timer, and a mobile phone, thats it.

Hope you like it, the shot was edited in Lightroom.



All C&C Welcome.

Thanks Sam.

I like this a lot. Very nicely done.

My only suggestion would be to tone down the light on your necklace just a smidge. It's a little distracting.

I didn't have any expectations of the outcome of the shot, I had an idea and used all available resources to see how it would turn out, and I'm glad you like it !
