You Got Any Visine?...... or 12 hours staring at the monitor (not a pretty picture)

Seriously, I work way too many hours staring at the screen.

To be honest, this was more difficult than I thought it was gonna be. Out of many tries, this was the best (I think) and I'm done for the night.


Specifics:
Shot with 105mm Nikkor micro at 1.25:1 with D700. SB800 flash on hot shoe as master, pointed towards a 15" softbox with another SB800 as a shoot through ~15" above me, ~20° camera right and ~12" off my face. ISO200, aperature at f/18, shutter speed at 1/160. There was some bias in both EV and FV, but I don't remember what.


Intent:
Creepy.
Yep, I did have a look in the mirror first. :rofl

    I really like this shot! I'm not sure it hit the creepy mark for me, but it is very intriguing!

    wow--I don't know the visine will help--I'm thinking Xanex!

    Great shot and comp--
    I do get a creepy vibe from this only because you look like you need to be medicated and fast.
