post processing i rotated it left for effect

"WTF???" is a prefect entry into the acronym challenge, something we all know and have said a bunch of times. You also did a great job of capturing the acronym appropriately.

I think you made an excellent choice of going black and white to really grab the viewers attention in at your eyes. The lighting and contrast both look very good. I am really surprised that you didn't score higher, this really is a great piece for the challenge. Honestly I am not sure why you didn't place higher. Maybe voters are a little burned out on the self portraits, I am not sure.

Overall great piece and good job on the self portrait!

Even though I am not crazy abnout the photo, I am rating you high (8), because IMO this is one of the very FEW that really fits the challenge as per the SC explanation.

The expression didn't seem to capture a look of questioning, as the initials do.
