Self Portrait with hat

So this is me. I didn’t shoot this using the tethered shooting idea I had yesterday. This is one of the ones from the other night. I’m not entirely sure how I got the lighting to work but I really liked it. Its got that whole light side / dark side of the face thing but with both eyes nicely lit. I guess I got lucky with it. I tried to get a shot without my iconic monkey hat, but I have short hair and I didn’t quite like having half the shot as forehead :D Anyway, its a self portrait. Its a reflection of me. I think I would have preferred a tighter crop if I were to use the one without my hat. Just above the eyes. Something to try another day I think. I just wanted a shot for my site’s about page so if anyone stopped by they would know who I am and they could recognise me out in Liverpool.
