Canon Photomarathon 2009

Canon has this yearly event called the Canon Photomarathon. Canon has done it again! This year Canon Phils. had to postpone the event because of the typhoons, but still they did a great job at delighting their customers always and giving photo enthusiasts and expert photographers a venue to display their talents, mingle with co-photo enthusiasts, and have fun. Too bad I had to leave early due to a family emergency.

It's a slow and boring Sunday. Just saw an "Avatar" movie poster while browsing the net and it struck me, I once wanted a self portrait just like that. Right then an there I unpacked my Lighting gear from the dusty closet and started my mini project.

After a few clicks and a little Photoshop editing, this is the result.
