Self Portraits

After my trip to Irvine, I have to admit I start to enjoy shooting portraits. Since it's more hassle to hire a model, I decide to follow Rembrandt's good examples to do some self portraits. It's a bit challenging because I don't have any studio lighting equipments so the shooting has to solely rely on natural light. Fortunately the light from the window is pretty good (soft and even due to the clouded weather). The big mirror in my living room also makes posing easier (though it's still hard to focus). Now the only thing I have to be careful about is to minimize the clutter in my house entering the pictures.

So here is the result. What do you think?
