Most people tell you start with something simple, yet for some reason I felt my first self portrait needed to be taken using only the light of the computer screen. The eight second exposure meant I needed to keep very still and despite my best impressions of a statue every photograph blurred with movement. Tired and ready for a good night’s rest I put my head down and finally got a shot that I could use. Maybe something using natural light next week?
