Me taking pictures of myself
Uploaded: November 10, 2006
Well I'm not much of a portrait photographer, but I decided to try something different this one evening late last summer. I brought along my flash to experiment, and found this log that seemed photogenic. I got my light set up and took a few pics, hoping the flash would bring out the texture in the log. It seemed nice, but I thought it would be a good place for an outdoor portrait. I was alone, so I just set the timer and jumped in there myself.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
