Portrait.... I think so but I know this will not be a high finisher plus I am not so sure it is unrecognizable. But I think this is a powerful image I am very happy with. I am not making light of the subject or doing it for shock value, it is an image that I felt I had to make and to be true to myself I had to follow through despite the reaction I may get.

Great gritty image! Full of life and death in one.

See what is great about this one is how it relates to the rest of us.
Most photographs are just 1st person, but this is 1st, 2nd, and third.

Well done.

Artistic visual of depression. The tones fit the mood.

good brutal minimalism. I'm thinking jminso though I can't be sure unless you take your shirt off.

Disturbing. The arm is unconsciously in a muscle flex position, and looks healthy and strong. Yet, the appearance of impending suicide indicates a despondency that is stronger than the promise of health, vitality, and potential. Very, very disturbing.

disturbing, the motion really adds some tension to this, the dark colors and underexposure work well with this
