July 22, 2011 8:17am I like the rawness of this photo. Its very dark and the light hits you well. The parts that are the lightest, grab my attention and really pull my eye all over the page, which is good, because you do not want your eye stuck in one spot. For a self portrait, this is fabulous.
May 21, 2011 1:41pm I saw where you had asked for "honest comments". How could one not "honestly" be awestruck by an image like this? Amazing textures, composition, shadows, highlights and a truly beautiful face! Honestly, I do not know where to stop commenting. Just that I have limited time and space here to write. Simply said, I am truly in awe of this and all your work.
