Photo Challenge: Self Portrait

Sometimes photographers hide behind the camera, so this week we turned the camera around for our “Self Portrait” photo challenge. Take a look at the photos and tell us what you think in the comments.

Taken with the analogue Spinner 360 camera, I was able to include myself in a panoramic view of the lavender fields surrounding the Sénanque Abbey in the French Provence region. In the background, you'll notice not only the 864-year-old abbey, but also my good friends who just got married. Ahh, la douce France! Photo by Pieter Dom

Shot this on my Canon T2i when I asked my fiance to marry me in San Francisco. Used the self timer and a 20 shot burst with a wide open aperture to bring in as much light as possible. Worked out pretty well if I do say so myself! Photo by Nathan Bowling (Congrats!)

I stuck my camera on my tripod and swung it around during the exposure. I used a cable to release the shutter. Camera was in aperture priority mode set to F22 which would give me the longest shutter as it was a very bright day. I didn't have an ND filter so I used my CPL just to get a bit of a longer exposure. F22 : 1/2sec : ISO100. Photo by Warren Coskey

I am always being told I see the brighter side of life, so with that in mind, I used some enhancing to bring out the bold colours of the photo reflecting on how I like to see the world. With the reflection in the sunnies, I think it shows this pretty well. Photo by Stephanie Roberts.

Impulse for this self portrait was a beautiful flower lying on the street, which someone must have lost. So I took it home and shoot a picture. To fulfill my vision of a dreamy atmosphere I had to make a color aftertouch, which was the only digital manipulation I undertook. It is also the last photograph taken with my Canon EOS 50D before I made an upgrade to 5D MarkII. Photo by Tomáš Gering.
