    Self Portraits

    Hi, I am relatively new this forum and thought I would take the time to introduce my self:
    I am English, but living and working full time as a studio photographer here in Norway.
    I work 99% digitally these days, but still have a love for film and have recently started to work with large format as a break from the digital work I do all day long...
    I have a Crown Graphic and recently acquired a shen hao TZ45 IIb which I have coupled with a Caltar f5.6 210mm IIN
    And this is what I look like.. mad as a hatter I know.... with a load og 4x5 polaroid film I just picked up from one of my suppliers.. a chance conversation about the iminent death og polaroid led me to emtying there shelves of some outdated stock... just couldn't help myself....
    So go ahead post up those self portraits... don't be shy!
    expired t55 and expired t59 both taken on the shen with an air release.. profoto beautydish (yea right...) with grid..

    How many self portraits and in what format??

    I think I have a self portrait with every camera I've used. Maybe one or two cameras slipped through the net.

    So do you want LF self portraits or any format

    Forum rules require that photographs be large format. Not a rule I agree with - seems kind of silly when it comes to sharing photographs (as opposed to discussion) on a low-res device like a computer monitor but that's the rule, at least as I recall it.

    Thanks! It was about a 3 to 5 minute exposure...can't remember exactly. Resting my chin on my hands kept my head still. My hands were <6 inches from the camera.
