Being creative with limited available light (Self-portrait)

@lennertdirkx · 2018-08-22 19:33 · portraitphotography

I've been really pushing myself to create some form of content each day lately, and I must say it's been amazing! Not only am I taking photo's everyday, I also touched up on my illustrator and Indesign skills.

For the second, yes second, post of today (You can check my earlier post here) I would like to share one of the images I created with the restrictions I myself set in place. That being: no studio lights and or any light-source other than natural light.

I really liked working with restrictions as it pushed me to work around them, thinking out of the box in some capacity. I personally think that the image came out ok. I like the single light ray shining through, making me look like a super villain with my "light-scar" ha-ha.

I would recommend putting yourself in front of restrictions, as it really makes you think about the image you're taking. It's also a really fun challenge to test your creative brain, ha-ha :)

Hope you like the image as much as I do, or at least find some appreciation for it! :) Do let me know what you guys think of it! Criticism is highly appreciated as I'm still learning :)
