Top Ten! Perhaps you should try stuff in focus more often, huh? *grin*

I really am pleased that this did well. It's wonderful.

your eyes look like they spin like whirligigs or pinwheels......and that right.....sided ........smirk....well... we ALL have secrets.....don't you know


someone told me once to look in the mirror and hold my hand up against half my face and look to see what I saw.....then switch and cover the other half of my face to see what I saw there.........

fascinating in this photo.....right?

in your face, quite literally, sort of...

Great image. Great processing.

Awwwww. When this came up it made me smile. This is a fascinating portrait, B, because each half of the face has a completely different personality.

I love the BW rendition and the pose, pretty personal and informal portrait. y only quibble would be the eyes as I find the processing a tad too strong and not to in synch with PP on the rest of the image.

Very nice self portrait. Interesting with personality. Nice processing, too.

A wee tad noisy in the background but this has good focus and a lot of character, a nice friendly face. I'm not usually a fan of square crops personally but it's Ok here. I like the even light. Good work, a 7.
