Same here: no one recognizes me without that black thing with the big eye!

I don't think I put my self-portrait up here. Uploaded to the gallery yes, here no. Here's my submission:

I took this earlier in the year for the self-portrait section of a photography class. I call it "Self Portrait in a Dark Room, or, In a Room, Darkly (Lit)."

I took this today. I was riding solo and wanted a photo of these early colors but with a rider for a better shot.
I balanced the camera in a small tree and used interval mode while I went and rode this stretch.

Another MTB selfie from last night. The smoke is back and it's pretty surreal out there. (x-post)
This time I balanced the camera (K-3 & 18-135) on my backpack which was leaning against some sagebrush.

I had to take a head shot for work today. Looks like I stayed up too late last night, lol.

At least it's an honest view.

Boredom selfies

With my usual Summer/autumn photography events cancelled by the pandemic and my wariness toward going the other places I used to go to photograph people. I’ve been doing dog/photo walk photography where I can maintain an average social distance of many yards. I quit covering the Breonna Taylor protests after 23 days, too many wearing masks when walking in silence and pulling them down to their chin when yelling.

But I decided to get my Lume Cube Go Panel and Lume Cube mini-panel for an indoor selfie session. K70 for the flippy screen, 20-40mm Ltd.

Here’s a couple in color and a highly dramatized in post monochrome. Next time I’ll jury rig a backdrop stand and hair light.

MTB selfie tonight. I rode with a small tripod on my pack for doing some panos but decided to use it for this too while I was at it.
