 In the absence of a better subject, I had to settle for myself. Taken at the end of a really exhausting day - I think it shows! Title shamelessly stolen from this quite astonishing photo from nixter, one of my all-time DPC favourites:



Simple light/camera setup, though focus was a bit hit and miss. Not much in the way of PP - a couple of minor trips through USM, a bit of added noise and some dodge and burn.

Post-challenge: Surprised and delighted by posthumous mention. Many thanks!
