Using Umbrella Shots

Last night at past midnight I finished doing my test with the umbrella and the background. It's frustrating when I have a little room to move around. My place is just too tiny to work on and I squeeze myself to get some shots. I used umbrella with the sb600 facing a quarter angle towards me. It's quite hard to not just stay from the shot scene and not checking the camera. Concentration is hard but doing this I hope one day I can get one self portrait better, fast and great.
