Self Portrait
Simple question: Is the PP of this photo too much?
Obviously it is a harsh look but that is what I was attempting. I must be narcissistic because I find I cannot stop looking at this image. The problem is I can't decide if I like it. One moment I love it, the next I hate it.

Yeah. Pretty much. I took a few shots of my face with various framing and I decided I like this one the best. The shots with my full face just didn't feel right for this image.
LUCKYSHOT:
I agree the PP completely changes the feeling of the image.

Thanks. I think there is too much PP (or too obvious of PP) but right now I'm in the loving it camp.

i know you are asking for something else but to me once the composition is doubtful, no matter how nice the coloration is, it tends to degrade the pciture.
Sorry again but its just my opinion.
Seeing as this is my own face, I don't even really notice the crop. I think my brain fills in the missing part. I wonder if I would notice it more if it was a face I didn't see often.

I feel the picture just ends without saying anything. If you were to be looking off to the side or something... then it might add?

more involved answer I love the PP it works the crop not so much, I would also try and clear up the eyes I mean the murkiness on the right eye(frame left). with the processing a cleaner area in there would look better IMO
Also...related to the narcissist comment, I love taking pictures of myself... I'm the only one I know that doesn't (at some point) get tired of me taking pictures of them.
