great portrait, really...but much more i love a fact that there is a time captured in this image..your watch shows us clearly that the time can be stopped ...by taking a photo.. Ou, it also reminds me my friend saying...don´t forget, photo is just a captured moment of reality...yes, i see :)
great work, well composed and great object :))

Nice shot. Good background. Good crisp self portrait. I really like how photographers get themselves into such strange positions for the shots. Worth it though.lol. Kerry

A very good self portrait and so good to see that you didn't make the usual mistake lots of people make on a shot like this of having the Canon name appear back to front.
Congratulations on POD :)

I am also very thankful for yours, and everyone here on UF's support, and inspiration to continue with my passion of photography! So glad that we all have this to share!

Bunnie,

thanks very much!

The lens is my workhorse, canon 24-70 f/2.8L USM! It's that GIGANTIC 77mm chunk of glass on teh end that dwarfs the camera! ...i love that look :) glad you do too!

cheers,
-Joel

Thank you Petal! :)

I am all about the word 'Canon' on my camera! ....it's always a battle with a good friend that's all about the 'other' brand. whatever!

Sorry for the scare! ..possibly not as big as the one I had when I went to the home page to see my face! *zoinks!*

...off to find a jag picture! ;)

Thank you peta! ...the thought DID cross my mind that you would spot the lens :) you see the new Canon 85mm f/1.2 L? Want it so bad, it hurts. To far down the path trying to explain to my wife that I *need* to buy the 100mm macro to change my mind. damn this addiction!

thanks for the comment peta!!

Thank you very much Jeanette! I'm glad you like it. I'm sure you know, it's so much work to shoot and decide on a self portrait! I was lucky in the fact that my living room is painted blue, and always acts as a perfect backdrop to any lighting setup! Your self portraits are amazing!

thanks again!

best,
-Joel

I like the lightning with warm tone and the blue background, which make a nice "contrast" to your warm gaze. Nicely composed and nice details!
