A bit last minute, so not as polished as I'd have liked. For example, the bottom edge of the photo is visible. The shot was a bugger to set up, my wife gave me loads of help. In case it's not immmediately obvious, this is supposed to be me looking in the mirror and seeing my 18 year old self. I really hope my skin complexion is nowhere near that bad in real life, but in this shot it is supposed to contrast with the smooth skin in the photo. As this is another self-portrait, I expect it to get an abysmal score.

Too bad that you were unable to have made the shot without that annoying white line at the bottom of the refelected image. I like the idea though.

Creepy, but effective. A completely maroon/brown background would help. There's a bit of black on the lower right corner.
