Self Portrait

[ 3rd Place ]

Ok, I know that my face (except my lips and part of my cheek) isn't showing,
but I still want to submit this one anyway, as I'm really really pleased
with how it came out. I envisioned this in my head before I shot it,
and it came out exactly like I had planned (which is always a good thing.)

PS was a slight gaussian blur,
a mild curves adjustment, and framing.

Thanks. I had a piece of 20x30" black foamcore behind me (propped on my couch) and I sat in front of it. Window light is what I used for illuminating myself. That's pretty much it. :)
