Default Punch in the face

I took this as a self shot for the Flickr 365Days group using my D90 with a nikkor 50mm f/1.8 and the SS-400 speed light.

I had my wife put her fist about 1" from my face while I shook my face left and right like a wet dog until my head hurt. I ended up taking about 150 shots within about 10 minutes until I couldn't take any more. (having a speed light is a must) I used Picasa to add a little more blur around the edges.

73/365


Thoughts appreciated.

Interesting capture. I feel that you should add a little motion blur to the hand too.

Man up! I think your wife really gave you a right cross.
What did you do to her?! ; )
Well done.
