My first Selfie..!

[Raincheck]

Idea isn’t mine saw a similar image created by Modifeye, thought that’s a nice little project.



My biggest problem was “the shot it self” wanted to be able to see myself!
Camera on a tripod tethered to Lightroom but couldn’t really see what I was doing.

Okay plan B
Hooked up my Camranger and iPad switch on live view & mounted the iPad onto a light stand so I could position it.
Used the Time-lapse function on the Camranger app, set the start to 30 seconds, 10 shots with an interval of 5 sec.
With live view on it was easier to see what I was doing. (Of course I could have used a remote trigger

How would you rate this shot?

Ps. This shot would work better without glasses (but then I am blind as a bat)

Good one!

 

[goodguy]

Very impressive.

 

[SpikeyJohnson]

Awesome! However I do like the glasses. They added some interest to me.

 

[Raincheck]

Thanks for the comments,

Had to remove one arm of the glasses (still some traces left) as it would look weird.

Will post a setup sketch if any one is interested

I like it a lot!

The hand holding the mask looks humongous compared to the hand holding the string, maybe 4X larger. It also looks almost as large as the chest. I like the idea here, but that jumbo hand is really throwing me off.

Hi Jenko,

Thanks for your comment, used was the Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8 L USM (to get as close as possible) that caused 80% of the distortion and I resized the head slightly to get a better effect.

I had noticed that as well. Really impressive though, great work and neat effect.

How are you rendering these neat setup illustrations?

 

[Raincheck]

Hi Derrel,

I use Autodesk 3dsMax & Photoshop, was planning to create all my gear in 3D and illustrate each set-up.

Oh, okay, thanks. Your set-up renderings are some of the better ones I've ever seen...one of the single biggest issues with "most people's" set-up diagrams is that they are well, just really bad!!! Yours most definitely do not suck!
