This month's challenge over at Rock the Shot Forum is a self-portrait and this is my entry. I am always complaining about the terrible lighting inside my house (it is pretty weak). My neighbor came over, squinted at the window, and mentioned that it sure was bright for such a gloomy day. She was right. My house was not flooded with light but the windows were. Dim house + bright windows = perfect opportunity for a silhouette shot! It was nice to work with the light conditions in my house rather than fighting against them with crazy high ISOs and too low shutter speeds.
ISO 400 | f 3.2 | SS 1/100
Instead of using the remote I just focused on a water bottle I set on the bed and then set the timer and stepped into place.
