Default Self Portrait - Night Shot - Strobist

Hello everyone! I've been working on my 365 self portrait project for a little over 3 months now and have been experimenting with the strobist style of photography.

I took this shot about a week ago and am very pleased with the results. But, I tend to be my own worst critic and can't help but pick it apart.

Would you mind providing me with some critique as to the exposure, comp, lighting, etc.?

I would really appreciate it. I'm a newbie and I'm really excited about learning all of the complexities and virtually limitless creativity my camera has to offer.


Self-Portrait 099/365

EXIF Data:

Camera: Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi
Exposure: 0.2 sec (1 / 5)
Aperture: f/2.8
Focal Length: 100 mm
ISO Speed: 400


Thank you everybody!
