This is my re-enactment of Fight Club.

SPOILER: Its not the general fights that I am showing here, its fighting with myself.
Something quite personal since I have been fighting with myself a lot lately over my final year Thesis/ Dissertation, its a real struggle for me to focus and get my degree so I kinda wanted this picture to show just how I feel.

PS It took several shots to get this right since I was punching myself with one hand and holding the camera with the other, I punched myself in the face about 30times... (5 years and 3174 days ago)

Now that's suffering for your art!

(Get that thesis done! I know it's probably hardest at this stage, but when you look back in ten years or more you'll have the satisfaction of knowing it was WELL worth it! Good Luck!)

Love the concept and the picture is crystal clear. I'd add a tiny bit of fill light to it though so that your face doesn't look so underexposed. As it stands, though, this is great. All the best!

What great dedication, put half of that dedication into your thesis and you should do really well. Really impressed that you got such clarity holding your camera in on hand while hitting yourself.

do you have 10 foot arms? How did you hit yourself with your right hand and take a picture with your left hand without the left arm showing? Do you mean you took it with a remote with one hand?

author says:

Nope k5683 no remote, cannot afford one, just long arms I guess I had to hold the camera slightly below everything in shot and shoot slight upwards to avoid getting my arm in the shot.

PS I was shooting with a Nikon D70 with a strobe flash attached, was heavy
