When I started this flash experiment I was going for almost all white and ended up with almost all black. Strange.

Taylor says:: curious indeed. I wonder how this was set up...and how you where trying to get an all white?
Posted: Nov 20th, 2009 - 2:49pm - ∞

Grown Unknown says:: @Taylor originally I wanted to get a washed out look by shooting a flash behind me and in front. But I only had on camera flashes, so I couldn't completely destroy the background. Once I realized I was getting a nice rim light though on my hair I took it the other direction (figuring it's easy making things dark).

I've never grown a beard past a week - this is part trial by fire, part journey.
