All of your work makes me want to look closer. I am not just speaking of your self photos, but even the men that you have captured draw me into the photographs. Great portfolio!

Location
I took this photo in my DIY studio in my lounge roomTime
MiddayLighting
I used side lighting, to produce a more shadowed and mysterious look.Equipment
Canon 5D, Studio Light, Tripod, Shutter Release Button, 24-105mm 4f Canon Lens.Inspiration
What inspired me to take this photo was my research on inkblot tests, vulnerability and the psychology of the mind.Editing
Inkblots were my inspiration, therefore I mirror-imaged a photograph of myself, as well as a photograph of a dead tree, then overlaid both images together, and this is what I got!In my camera bag
Canon 5D MK II, 24-105mm f4, 50mm f1.4, 85mm, 135mm, Speedlite, Shutter Release, ND Filters, Backup CF Cards.Feedback
