My shut-in selfie…

 

Say that ten times fast.  

Balancing the Deardorff on the selfie stick was a bit of a trick. Definitely a historical image. The beard is now gone and probably will never come back.⁠

 

 

 The photograph is a self-portrait taken with a Deardorff 8×10 view camera, 14in Kodak Commercial Lens, and Ilford glossy enlarging paper for the negative materials. I rate the paper at ISO 6 with a pre flashing to reduce contrast. The lighting is a Profoto Acute 1200 at full power into a Mola Euro dish.
