Self Portrait with remote

My new camera (canon 60d) has a screen that swivels out with live feed. It makes self portraits a lot of fun; I used my 50mm f/1.8 lens, stepped the f-stop down to 1.8 (so it had a very shallow depth of field), sat in front of the camera with the screen facing me and set the lens to manual focus. The camera was on a tripod and I had the remote in my left hand. I was able to watch myself on the screen and press the shutter with the remote when I thought the timing was right. I had fun moving different parts of my face in and out of focus. In the end I really liked how it looked when my teeth were in focus.
