I thought I'd throw up a self portrait, sort of good to know what members look like at least for me

I took this when I first got my E-3 about six months ago. I was dying to try out the wireless flash. I placed a strobe and umbrella up and off to my right about three feet then set another light behind and to my left with a plastic diffuser cup strapped on. It was the first wireless flash shot ever for me. Anyway...It's the HAM in me that makes me share this

man Michael - even a self portrait is crystal clear!! i was going to say "lovely" shot - but decided you would probably prefer "handsome, manly" shot! either way - well done!

nice to 'see' you mike! for some reason, you totally fit the picture in my head... that rarely happens!
and good photo too - your eyes, skin, & hair detail is fabulous... obviously great use of light!

Nope..not what I expected..but yet now that I see you, it is now...lol. Great lighting!!!

Hmm..gonna have to start a "self portrait" thread for all us memebers...

I like any photo with purposely created shadows and harsh light ... nice texture.

Self portraits ... not something I favour for myself but enjoy seeing others.

Hey! I'll throw in my 2 cents as well. Nice capture. Nice to "meet" you!

Nice shot of yourself. If you were to write a book, I could see this being on the back, or on the inside cover as a 'meet the author' page. Enjoy the wireless flash, keep them coming. Welcome!

Nice shot, and good quality.
Do you have any sunsets photos with your E3?

I'm asking you this because I'm still not decided what to buy next : D300 or E3.

Thank you

As you well know...it's rumored that Vancouver has a sun behind all those clouds but I've yet to get a shot of it setting

Sorry Lovin, I have never done any sunsets that I can recall.

Thanks for all the comments for my mug shot....I'll never do it again...promise

Cheers
