    Really neat self portrait. I love the textures. So now I have to ask. Was it worth sneaking the peak? You look dubious.

    I love the color version too. It has a more intimate feel to it, less like an illustration. You have two keepers.

    I like both versions. Well done. thumb.gif

    I tried doing self-portraits, but could never get the subject to cooperate.

    Cheers,

    Now we get to decide between b&w and color and how to crop!!! You have such nice hair, George it seems a shame to crop so much off!!! lol... I'm thinking you can't go wrong with either version...it's just a strong idea and execution. Love it.

    I would have a difficult time with my subject if it wasn't for the pills he takes-

    and he is available quite a bit-

    I like them both! If I HAD to choose one, I think I'd choose the color...I like the subdued tones of brown and I really, really like the crop on that one. Very cool!
