In these portraits, though I took them myself, I made an effort to not make it obvious that I was in fact holding the camera while I posed. I think keeping my arms well out of the portrait made it look more than just a self portrait. Though I tried a few photographs with the automatic timer, I found that holding the camera while posing turned out to give better photographs.
Great work, you have a very detailed blog and the photos you have posted are excellent. I like the way you have taken the photos with varying perspectives and ranging contrasts. The shots of the outdoors work well with the use of texture and value. The SLR shots are fantastic and I enjoy the fact that you included the negatives on the post. Your work is tremendously wonderful. Keep posting and keep up the good work!
