A year of self #65 – Au naturel

No makeup, plenty of texture. I see a bit of my grandmother’s face in mine, and that is not a bad thing.

I realize I am a day behind, and I hope to get caught up by posting a second image later today (after I get the groceries bought and the house tidied up).

A year of self #60

Slick back the hair, apply make-up, add butterfly lighting, and there you have it.

Good morning!

Happy Sunday!

A couple of shots of the critters from this past weekend while testing out my Gary Fong Lightsphere Universal flash diffuser. I think I’ve finally found the perfect modifier for my flash. Look how soft that light is! All were taken with the flash on camera. (gasp!!)

I liked the Universal so much, I’ve gone ahead and purchased the Lightsphere® Collapsible™ G5 Lighting Kit: Fashion & Commercial. Can’t wait to take it through its paces and really learn the ins and outs of the system.
