This is photo taken of my daughter at 10 days old with her Dad. This was my first attempt of taking a photo like this, I bought a black bed sheet from the store and set it up in her room with the blinds drawn and used a torch for light.

Hmm wow photograph

The entries should be posted as an image on the comments or should I make a post?

I believe you should do a post, because you should use the tag #portraitcontest

Best of luck to everyone involved!

Here's my entry, by the way: https://steemit.com/portraitcontest/@ddrfr33k/photo-contest-entry-light-and-shadow

BTW, I don't see the option to resteem the post? It's not there...May I resteem another of your posts in it's place?

In line with the famous annual Bench Underwear fashion show is where I got the idea of this photo. The Bench, a Philippine clothing brand, during that show uses the theme "The Naked Truth".

One line from Tyra Banks I always remember in watching America's Next Top Model is "Fake it till You Make it." As a frustrated model, I always remember this line. To be fierce. To make people believe that you can model. It is part of modelling, where you have to act that it is okay to pose naked, to adopt with environment, light, and everything that completes the picture.

In this picture I gave emphasis on my body , and my features in my face. One can tell how long my neck is. With only 70 percent of my face that is lit, one can still see the expression of my face.

I took this picture alone, with a low quality smartphone from O+, in my parent's room. I used the 10 sec self timer.

I hope that judge @homeartpictures will like this. Thanks to @akrid @minnowsupport @crimsonclad
