About Me — Miguel Feuggin
Photograph is my most enduring passion hobby. It has been for most of my adult life and it’s a trade I come back to explore and share my pictures every so often either online, submitting to photo contests or public exhibits. This is a self-portrait style story that is very much related to my livings related to shooting artistic.
First in my catalog is what I suppose would be my first self portrait taken with a photographer awareness. I’m wearing my gold and purple Lakers t-shirt so should be 13 years old, around 1990. It’s taken in a reflection of a jewelry display at Palácio da Bolsa in oPorto. It was taken on a school trip to the birthplace of Portugal, Guimarães and oPorto. To this day I’m still guessing how my father allowed me to take his Canon, he really should be in a great mood. Also in the picture the Silma Bosch SB20 flash is shown. Nowadays I’m using it as the flash in my Nikon FM2. No sync cable needed, just plug’n’play . It’s amazing how technology related to photo equipment is so standard.
