07.12.10 (posted 07.18.10) - i haven't posted a self portrait on this blog in a while. so i figured, now would be a good a time as ever to have one as my photo of the day. i attempted to take several photos of myself while standing on my tippy toes in front of a mirror that is hanging above my entry table. why was i on my tippy toes, you ask? you see i'm only 5' 1" and i could only see from my forehead to my nose. yeah... the mirror is a "bit" too high for me but what's a girl to do when her hubby is 10 inches taller than her. we had to come to a happy medium with where the mirror would be hung.
anyway, i started to fiddle with the settings on my dslr and came up with this unusual shot by accident. outside of adding a little more grain in post, the crazy effect of multiple "me's" and multiple lenses was achieved by not being able to stay steady on my toes and hold the camera in place. i had thought about posting other shots that were clearer but this one stood out. plus, my hubby mentioned that it reminded him a lot of the marcel duchamp's "nude descending a staircase". so i guess it's a keeper.
