Like how the turquoise hood frames the face and makes the portrait "pop".

This is a great portrait! In another challenge I'd probably give you a 10. However I can't imagine that you are unrecognizable in this, so not 10. (I haven't been too hard on you though.)

superb use of light

Well, you are recognisable, Marac, but it is a cracking photo. Not dinging you for the unrecognisable part - a self-portrait in a different guise is good enough for me.

Edit, back to bump and just noticed the initials of your title - nice touch.

Excellent. Love the intensity of the eyes, and the color of the robe. Lighting is just right.

I don't know about this being a secret portrait but it's a good portrait, really nice light on your face, great colors on the wrap around your head. Very painterly type image, could see this being painted on a canvas.
