It's like 18 degrees outside so I was messing around on the laptop with the camera hooked up to it, there is a mirror just to the right of where I sit and when I pressed the shutter release through the computer this is what I got! Just messin around and bored so I thought I would throw this on here.

That turned out really good for an acident. With a little cropping and adjusting it could make a nice addition to the profolio I think.

It is quite a good candid/self portrait and captures the mood well!

Hey thanks goforphoto, I was pretty surprised how well framed it was, kinda freaky! I like the way you reprocessed it too! Thanks for the comments Ian!

Nice shot! Have you tried flipping it horizontally so it doesn't look like a mirror image? I like the PP verision in the sepia tone BTW:D :D
