Creating a self portrait

Mapping Across Borders needs a face on it. For better or worse, that’s going to be my face. I wanted to make a headshot portrait where I usually work, doing Africa related stuff. This meant that I would need to be in my office at home, by my computer. To make it look good (from at least a lighting perspective) I would need to set up the light in the room with external camera flashes (like the Canon 580EXII).
