It began as an experiment - I wanted to try using my television as a light source, so I upped the brightness as far as I could and held a mirror to my side for some reflected light. Of course, televisions don't produce as much light as strobes, so I had to use a really slow shutter speed, a tripod and a cable release. It was kind of tricky.
The title of this piece sums up my life right now; in good ways and bad ways, but I won't go into that - I'd prefer for people to make their own interpretations.
