As promised, I would take a self pic today.... tada... here it is! No CC please, I just took a shot, and I know I should have looked at the settings. I have one question though.... How do you make the whites WHITE?! And why does it look like I don't know how to hold my camera.... anybody else think my arm looks awkward?! Anyways, thx for stopping by! A new picture will be posted tomorrow :)

How to make whites... white??? That is the million dollar question! I am still learning and need to order my grey card! It is all about WB and such. Do you shoot in RAW or jpeg?

Nice to see you post a picture! If you use curves to lighten the pic you can use levels to whiten the whites a little more.

Nice to see you! Make whites look whiter - try bumping up your ISO and changing your white balance to incandesant, it should help.

Good to see you! :) It may look awkward just because it's a mirror image.

Cool self-portrait - I really need to do the same before the weeks end. I don't think your arm looks awkward...

cool pics. I wanna see your face now though :). set your cwb. it's totally worth the 2 minutes (or less). just make sure that you change it everytime you switch light sources.

OKAY, so I've been avoiding how to learn custom white balance. Obviously I'm ready to read and just DO it now! I need a grey card..but in the meantime anything white will help for now??
