"Selfie Using Artificial Light" - (Alan & Nikonpup)'s Choice

Everyone knows what a selfie is, so you just have to add artificial light to it. A selfie using light painting, a flash, a candle, etc. just for some fun. Let's see how creative you can be! Color, B&W, HDR...anything goes!

DO NOT SHOOT OR POST IMAGES UNTIL WEDNESDAY Apr. 11
This early announcement of the topic is to give a little think time, before the challenge begins. Photos must be taken and submitted between 00:00 UTC of the start date and 00:00 UTC of the end date.




The Rules

1. Photos must be captured with a Nikon and appear in the thread with EXIF info in order to be considered for the challenge. If the forum EXIF viewer does not show for any reason, listing the camera and capture date/time below the photo is acceptable. Listing exposure info, lens & focal length is encouraged so others can learn.

2. Any photo submitted for a weekly challenge must be taken during the dates specified in the challenge thread.

3. Only one photo entry per member for each week, unless otherwise noted.

4. All regularly active members of Nikonites are allowed to participate, including moderators and administrators.

Voting

During the submission & like periods, please click the Thanks/Like button to vote for your favorite images. You can vote for as many as you want! At the end of the week, you will have the opportunity to vote again for the top 3 photos for this challenge!

There will be no cash or prizes awarded for the Weekly Photo Challenges, unless specifically noted by the site administrator.

Any photo will be accepted for the challenge. Edited or straight out of the camera, it does not matter. You are left with complete freedom to do whatever genre of photography you wish to do, and your own interpretation of the challenge subject.

This was not a planned thing. We didn't know what we were going to find to shoot today.. Took a little drive to a small water hole. Took some pictures of landscapes and then noticed the sunset was coming on. Took a few shots and then my wife wanted a shot of her with the sunset in the background. I first said it won't work because you will just be a dark silhouette. Then an Ah Ha moment. The built in flash is worth a try because no time to fool with OCF. It came out pretty decent so I thought that it would make a selfie too. Flash is the artificial light to brighten us up in front of the sunset.
