At the beginning of the month my work colleagues and myself decided to participate in Movember.
Basically grow a moustach in aid of mens health charities.
As this would most definitely be the first and last time I was going to do this I thought I would take the opportunity to try and create a self portrait.
It was actually no so easy, I didn't want to use flash as I wanted a kind of gritty image also used a black backdrop. The camera was on a remote cord with a 70mm 2.8 lens attached.
I have applied a few subtle effects to the 4 poses to try and create slightly differing effects.
I found it incredibly difficult trying to get the correct focus on the eyes as I am in front of the camera and trying to judge the correct place for the shot. Quite an interesting exercise never the less.
