Olympus E-5, Zuiko Digital 12-60mm f/2.8-4, @60mm (120mm equivalent) f/5.0, 1/250th, off-camera Olympus FL-50R flash with Lastolite EZYBOX Speed-lite mini soft box, ISO 100.

It's fair to say that I resorted to another self-portrait out of a lack of imagination for the Daily Photos challenge today on my part! I also wanted to have more of a play with the Lastolite EZYBOX Speed-Lite mini softbox used with my FL-50R flash wirelessly controlled off-camera by my Olympus E-5. Again, I wanted a single light source with a dark background, but this time the flash was placed at around 45 degrees to the subject rather than to one side. Photographing one's self and with such a sharp lens is quite an experience - especially when you know you're not getting any younger!
