It turns out that my new sexy lens is great at holding out the camera self-portraits. Who new? This shot is also using a sexy new floodlight that I bought for skewsme. The strange look was accomplished with lots of layers and masking, the skintone happened when I darkened the red in hue/sat. The description of the photo remains the same though: weirdo taking self-portrait.

I'm thinking I might get a decent score just because the picture is so damn focused. We'll see.

There really is no post processing that I can see done to this. It should be demonstrating advanced editing techniques.

Very nice use of lighting, especially getting the eye on the dark side lit. He doesn't look like a happy punkinhead ...
