I think this is the 5th OCF self portrait I've taken... I can't remember, it's been so long between portraits. Anyways, two in a row - pretty awesome.
So this time around, it was raining pretty hard and I was starting to think about different shots to try indoors. But the weather cleared out and there were some clouds in the sky so I thought I'd make the most of it by driving over to Half Moon Bay to try and catch the sunset and snap some pics. After arriving did I realize the clouds were long gone. But we found a beach and setup for some quick shots. The sun was so bright that I initially started popping my flash at full power. But as the sun went down, flash was turned down to 1/2 power and eventually to 1/4 power. So here I am watching the sun get swallowed by the ocean.:
Strobist, one bare flash only(SB-24) camera right at 1/2 power. I got some rim light from... well, from the sun.

Yup, top one rocks. Now just put a girl in the picture and it would sell. ;)
