52-week Challenge
Week 1 – Self Portrait

Way outside my comfort zone!

I do not like images of myself. Let’s make it worse, as I had to create it myself. What am I thinking?

As I mentioned in another post, I want to challenge myself this year and doing this 52-week challenge is my punishment. I refuse to sign-up in order to post the image so it will only be seen here. I am going to follow the challenge found on 52Frames. The next few challenges will definitely be more my speed. Saying that I will need to find ways to up the challenge rather than fall back into my comfort zone.

Enough babbling… show them the image.

The mirror seemed like the best option for me. The fun part was setting it up (not the best lighting but options are limited) and executing the exposure. Luckily I could connect my phone to the camera through the Nikon SnapBridge app and see what I was doing. I could ensure I was positioned in the mirror properly and set the focus point. Then it was simply clicking the shutter button on the phone.

Nope! Still don’t like images of myself.

This one is in the done pile. On to the next challenge…
