This is a self-shot portrait using a digital camera on a tripod and then setting a timer. The image was taken indoors and the background/environmental elements were of course compiled and Photo-Shopped in later. Nothing about the initial photograph or costume were altered except the color contrast and some shadows/shading effects.
The "The Shedding Of Darkness" reflects the spiritual transition through the course of deep winter....the introspection, self awareness, discipline & work we must all do within ourselves to shed the old.... to make room for the new.
