ENTRY DESCRIPTION
A self portrait taken in my first (and current) apartment. I like to shoot in black and white to focus on the eyes and convey more emotion in a photo. I used the blur around the edges to focus the photo on my face. It produced a kind of mysterious effect, but there was no photoshopping - I simply tore up a Ziploc bag and placed it around the outside of my lens. Photography on a college budget.
