Me On the Street of Bangalore

I shot my own reflection on the rear glass window of a tricycle when I was walking around the Shivaji Nagar market in Bangalore, India. I shot it using Leica M9 and Zeiss Planar 50mm f/2.

Self Portrait – January 2011

The only way I can shoot myself is to shoot my reflection. Shooting using a timer doesn’t count as nobody is behind the camera. :)

My self portrait above was shot near Arab Street in Kampong Glam last week. I like the reflection of the colorful surroundings in the window of one of the shops there. The window itself had some colorful stickers on it. The aperture of f/1.2 blurred everything on the window and in the background.

BTW, I am working on what could be my longest blog entry ever. Quite excited about it, so stay tuned. :)
