#OOPS gone right!!

Been exploring self-expression through self-portraiture lately..

so naturally when I finally get my very own full frame camera I had a little fun with it. I had heard it does double exposure and explored. With no effort at all randomly held the camera at arms length took a shot of my self, then pointed at the bare floor boards of a living room undergoing renovations.

The first photo was the results (with a minor white balance alteration)

the next a black and white conversion

the  last a nik filter.

Certainly encouraged me to explore more #oops moments in photography!

Self-portraits shown to contestants in Masters of Photography, a show on sky arts. Task: home sweet home.. 3 images one a self portrait. Season 1 episode 7. Fascinating seeing how other photographers tackle a similar task.

Research for self-portrait brief These images have inspired and encouraged my already developing idea for this brief.. To explore surrealism, to be brave with colours, to explore and express motion more and to find different and unusual ways to express feelings and thought. And mostly to be brave and unashamed of self-portraiture
