 Man, two self portraits in a row! I must be brave! lol It's been some time since I did a classic fridge shoot. So why not...

I used a single speedlight and the fridge light bulb, to illuminate the scene. Flash was off camera, placed in the left side of the fridge. Camera was placed, in the back right of the fridge. I used a remote tripper, to trigger the camera.
Exposure wise, I first metered for the fridge's light bulb. Adjusting the f stop, to limit it's brightness and show its form. I then moved on to adjusting the flash power. Gradually adjusting it manually, to this exposure. This process took some time. As I had to remove the camera, to review and adjust. Looking back, I should have run my camera to my monitor. I could have shot remotely. Eliminating the need, to remove the camera from the fridge. It was still a fun shoot though, next time.... Oh and I ended up having the mortadella.
Just so you know...

A bunch of inside the refrigerator images. And all of them free of condensation. I'm wondering how you all did that??!!

Grog say Magnum may have all but Mammoth ribs on bottom shelf. That is Grog's favorite. Grog saves for superbowl party with Thag, Kron, Magnum and Uggg. Ooga, Snarfles and Guurl invited too, but must serve food first.

Grog suggests tuna sandwich in back. Is only expired by few weeks.

I gave this an "8" because I think the image is well done. But, isn't this guy outside the frig looking in? No points off, but this maybe should have been in the sister challenge.
