I am ONE.

I decided to start keeping track of my haircuts immediately after I get them, so that if it turns out well down the road, I have some idea what it looked like to begin with. That and they never look quite the same as the day you get it cut. That and the fact that I keep thinking the light in this bathroom is so wonderful in the AM, and I never get around to taking anybody else's portraits here. Problem with the whole mirror thing is that the background ends up blown out because it's not the same thing you see when looking straight on. meh.

And why sunglasses? Because my eyes always look tired, and getting catchlight reflections in shades are much easier :)

After #2

For a change, it actually ended up looking better washed the next day, instead of never looking quite as good as the day it was cut.

Happy Monday Morning!

Went oncall as soon as I got back from CA. After a few aborted attempts at leaving the house on Saturday, I finally made it to the Farmer's Market. Been working since I got back home.

The nice thing about having kids is that you end up spending a fair amount of time waiting for them in bathrooms, which means plenty of time to collect DHB shots like this one...

Bedhead @ 34

Yesterday I was so tired that the only thing I really wanted for my birthday was to be left alone - how sad is that?

But after a good night's sleep (I'm oncall this week, yay!) and a calm morning, I actually feel like I could smile for a change ... and figured I would share this morning's bedhead with the group (it was better earlier, but it took me so long to get around to taking a photo of it), along with another shot of the infamous new glasses.

Flickr chic(ken) self-portrait

The self-portrait used in the competition not-quite-winning montage from the weekend.

I missed the fine print about needing to have the words in a photo, and not just photo-shopped in, but close enough :)

(This shirt used to be another color, but I like this color better anyway ... and now it's one-of-a-kind too!)

Technical notes: Need to wash out background without killing subject outline next time. Also, next time using two brown eggs will be easier to dye^H^H^Hphotoshop than one brown and one green. Just not enough color to tweak in the green one. I can't even imagine what I would have done with white ones. Maybe replacing white with another color would have worked even better in that case.

One Sunpak FP-38s behind my back washing out the wall/ceiling (it slopes at a 45 degree angle). Trigger and fill provided by a SB-24 on a stand shooting through a diffuser (haven't gotten around to umbrellas or softboxes yet).

Learn how to light at Strobist.
