    Like the idea but maybe a little to overexposed?

    I like the text in 1b. And the eyes in 1a and 1b are better than in the first. I'm not sure about the color vs B&W.

    I like the "Over Exposed" idea, perfect for a self-portrait challenge, and I think the B&W high key approach completes the pun. So I'm a fan mostly of 1a; #1 is too ghostly.

    I like 1a or 1b depending on which text you want to go with. I prefer the processing in 1b unless you want to go with the Over Exposed text - then I'd go for 1a.

    I still think 1a goes along with over exposed. I think #1 is too over exposed.

    Like the Over Exposed idea best, and agree 1a is the better of image, 1 is too over exposed.

    I'm late to the thread. FWIW- I like the way you arrived at your entry. Nice persistence and helpful comments.

    I also prefer the 70's child. I love the color but would probably bring the exposure down a bit and give it a little noise to age it up a tad.

    Not that your current entry isn't good. Both are great ideas! thumb.gif

    I like your signature in the font from #2 (70s Child), but prefer everything else on your tweeked #2.
