Description
Recently I felt the need to produce a new ID shot. Let's face it: The old one was just a bit too... nice.
Anyway, this also gave me a chance to try out my little home-made LED softbox, which I considered necessary before torturing other people with it.
I've decided that the frames I've been using for a while now are taking up too much space. Therefore I'm switching to simple, slim frames and non-annoying watermarks (unlike the dA watermark, which in my opinion screws up the hole picture).
Location:
My living room... Can't see much of it, though.
Gear:
Canon EOS 1000D
EF-S 18 - 55 mm IS lens
Technical details:
Aperture: F/5
Shutter speed: 1/25 s
ISO setting: 1600
HDR processing

Beautiful work. I love the textures of your face, and how your hand is just a little out of focus like the smoke.

Danke. Low Key ist es genau genommen nicht, weil dafΓΌr zu viele Pixel ΓΌber der 50%-Grau-Marke liegen. Aber es ist auf jeden Fall dunkler als meine frΓΌheren Bilder.
Danke fΓΌr den

du soltest dich mit deinem dunklen deviantID identifizieren

Hm... Teilweise kann ich das. Immerhin bin das ja ich auf dem Foto.

btw, this pic's not as scary as you want it to be

Yeah, that always happens when I think too much. No, there's actually a match in my hand which was extinguished shortly before I hit the remote shutter button.
Okay, it's not scary... But at least it's not "nice" either.

...so you're pyromaniac too. Neat
And why do you think your old ID was nice??

Who isn't?!
I was smiling in that picture and it had a white background (my wall). I felt the need to do something dark and use my LED softbox in the process.

hahhaha right, playing with the fire is cool
actually, on that ID you seemed to be playing the guitar a bit stoned....or maybe it was just weird to see you smiling

I love the feeling of this picture as well as the use of shadows.
