Dark & Light Self Portrait

Comment by tsheets:
Thanks to all for the comments. This is only the second time I have attempted a self portrait, and yeah, not too comfortable with that process. :-)

Since several of you asked, setup was a black sheet taped to a white wall. Had a cheap clip light shining on the wall from the right to light that, and another one from the left to the side and slightly in front of where I was kneeling. Camera on a tripod centered on the black/white line. The rest was just touch-up in post (making the white, more white, adjusting the saturation, etc...).

I was expecting to see more of this in this challenge. You really did a very good job on this without being theatrical. Excellent work and good luck!

Really ingenious idea. Probably real hard to get right.
