Description title from lyrics from Asleep by The Smiths
lyrics on the pic from Obstacle 1 by Interpol

As maria suggested, ive tried to lighten the shadow under my chin but it was like that when i took it. it would look better... but all in all , im pretty happy with this. it is the reflection of my mood a few nights ago.

Very beautiful! I'm so in awe of people who can do good self portraits! I am terrible at it.

You have good reason to really like this shot. You should do a whole bunch more now that you know it really works well. Maybe a series....

Na. Sometimes it's all about being lucky. I took 250 shots the other day at a wedding just for fun. I liked maybe 10 shots. The trick is to keep shooting though and see what pops up, you already have a model so I think your shots will be awesome like this one.

a simple moment -- when all thoughts flowed as one -- and the music in the heart -- passed through the night -- quite a beautiful result -- later days

i did thankyou for the compliments Leo! it sound like you view photos in a similar way to me. I too love the way my hair did that
i was in a very... interpol/radiohead mood that night. i took the photo at about 2 in the morning.

I have such a fascination with girls hair.
I like taking photos early in the morning. hehe

haha i have a fascination with girls hair too.. i find that taking picture when you are in a particularly strong mood, they turn out better. and i love any photo taken at night. what i would really love are some photos of someone lying on white sheets on their stomach in the morning with the light flooding into the room via the window... but it would need to look warm and... comfortable, if thats possible. that and photos at night of the moon on skin. Have you seen anything by the photographer Bill Henson?? he is my idle for night photos. you should check it out...

Yes i luv the whole laying in bed in the morning look too. very sexy

The shadow under the chin does look a little unnatural, but in a kind of surreal cool way, if that makes any sense?? Anyway, great work as usual, like I've come to expect now from you!!

youhandsomedevil88 In reply to Evanescence722 [2006-02-22 07:25:06 +0000 UTC]

yeah i mean, i took the photo as is. i only put a filter and changed the lighting a bit... but the shadow was there to begin with. so it is very natural even though it may not look it. i am extremely happy with it and for once i dont feel i need to change a thing, ,which is good for me! haha im so indecisive.
