Sephia Portraits
So I decided last night to do some sephia toned portraits for my Picture A Day project.
I took the images in color, converted to black and white, adjusted for contrast/brightness, and then added the sephia tone.
I really like they way these turned out. I ended up liking the second hat better because it was a lighter brown color and showed up a little easier.

As you can probably tell I enjoy taking self portraits. It’s not that I’m in love with myself (but seriously, who isn’t in love with me?), it’s just that I can really control everything. I am patient while I work out the lighting. I can always pose just the way I want. I don’t get nervous in front of the camera. I don’t have to talk myself into a pose or a shot. I know the exact look I’m trying to get. Also, I’m awesome!
Leave a comment and tell me what you think. The first picture isn’t on flickr, but the second one is, so you can comment on it either here or there.
While you’re at it, why not subscribe to my Picture A Day project and get updates automagically!
