Over-exposed by vikdaddy

Over-exposed

I'm getting really tired with this project. I'm struggling for time, and I keep having second thoughts about continuing. I'll carry on, but the quality of my photos may dip more frequently, and I may have to do more self-portraits - like today's shot.

Yes, it means more of my ugly mug from now until mid-May, when my project ends. I'll try to be more creative in any future 'selfies', seeing as today's isn't particularly so. I'll try to do the same with my processing too.

I did a bit of shopping today after work. What was meant to be a five-minute browse in one shop ended up taking a lot longer, as I kept seeing people I know. It was weird; first I spoke to my old boss from my first job, then Suman's cousins, then a friend of a friend and finally a couple of work colleagues. The only thing spent was the best part of an hour of my time!

Canon 7D, f/3.5, 1/100, ISO-100
3/4 done . . . hang in there!

yeh, stick with it mate. Check my stream, you'll see all the indoor ones of when I really didn't get my camera outside. I guess the challenge is individual to everyone, but I know what you mean about it being difficult.

I love this photo! Impressed with the over-exposure here. Please don't stop now!! I'm struggling with my creativity and finding time to shoot. Thinking my shots are so dull. I'll keep looking for time and inspiration if you will !! Pact? :)

Looks like a painting and a great selfie. Know the feeling and it sounds good that you have a strategy for keeping going - it's not very long.

Not long to go now!! I'm sure no one will mind your 'less creative' photos, I particularly like this one! Nothing wrong with selfies anyway when you're brave enough to do them :-)

I agree, it's a striking portrait, strong focus.
February 24th, 2011  
You are such an expert with processing - Wow! I love this! You can just keep on posting selfies - no complaints here. :)

You know what Sean Connery aka George Mason has to say about people trying to do the best they can manage? ;-)
'Your "best"! Losers always whine about their best. Winners go home and f**k the prom queen.'

I think this photo is great and there has been no decline in your work. You are hard on yourself. I always look forward to what you will show us.
