Description

No touch-ups

Spontaneous self portrait
October 2011

This is 1 of those shots where I can't believe it's me. None of the other frames look anything like this. It reminds me of those fairy themed fantasy photo shoots that people do.

It was actually raining this day, when the sun just came out, and it went up to 75 degrees (F) with large patches of clouds coming in and out. So, since I'd already practiced my make-up I grabbed my camera, threw on my bra,blouse & earrings and ran outside desperate to just try shooting anything I could get between cloud shadow cover. You can easily see the flooding ( giant puddles) all over the ground. I took easily over 1000 frames.

I like to try spontaneous self portraits sometimes instead of using my tripod because the close angle to the lens adds a weird refraction or warping to the look of my face, which is weird. So, I want the weirdness of it.

This is a vintage leather fringe jacket (by Wet Seat).
