Description

Some cosplay portraits of myself. This was no easy feat.
Apart from the studio set up for the correct lighting, there was the fun of not having a shutter release cable.
So you can imagine, getting the right Depth of Field was hard and getting a sharp image with the right pose and lighting within the 10 seconds of the camera's timer.
I also like to make things hard with white on a white backdrop.
So here is another one of the series, the character I am portraying in the images is a guy from a game called 'Assassin's Creed'.

Exif: F Number: 9, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/80 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 50.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D

Nice shot! Well done! How on earth were you able to get yourself in focus without a shutter release cable? I've tried to do that before, & it's almost impossible! #1675793

It is as you say almost impossible. I used a piece of tape as a marker on the floor and then used manually focused on a chair for the dof/focus. Thank you for your kind words 😊 I really appreciate them #11546550
