| Goddag :) Well taken photo especially as a self portrait, it isn't so easy is it! Show me a few more teeth and I would probably see a photo like this in an ad for toothpaste. Man you got white teeth! Anyway another top quality pic as I would expect to see from you. Keep up the good work, your photos are a pleasure to view. |

| Toning down the background would have made it better for me. |

| nice portrait (self?) One criticism - I sense heavy editing around hair (eg see above model's right ear up to hair parting). Slightly awkward angle also does somethign funny to model's right ear which is a bit out of focus. |

| These are always very tough to do. Great job on getting the focus on and good lighting. the left eye looks a bit sharper that the right. Nice job of having the camera higher than your eyes. |

| Self portraits are HARD to do. I think you've done VERY well here. Focus perfect. Expression perfect. Cropping perfect. A small nit about the slight shadow over the right shadow. Sweater color was a good choice to go with your hair color. Don't you wish I could vote? If I could you'd get a 9. |

| A great subject iwth a nice natural expression. I like the white turtle neck combined with a white background. I think you're going to do well on this one. Good luck! |

the background is a little blown out which ends up bleeding into your hair a bit, but the lighting on the rest of the picture is excellent. You've made very soft shadows which give enough facial detail without too much harsh reality :)
i like it.

| This is lovely. My only criticism would be with the bland background. A more detailed backing would help the face stand out much more. 7 |

| I really like this - it stands out from the rest even as a thumbnail. The high key approach with white on white works really well and the lighting lifts the face out of the white background. The slightly tilted pose appeals as well. My compliments. Maybe I would have cropped a little off the top but what do I know? |

| I did a self-portrait too, but I didn't label it as such and voters are telling me my model must have been brave to pose like that!! haha!! Nice work here....I like the lighting....the close up angle works well.....very nice work |

| Having tried the self-portrait for this challenge I know it isn't easy. You've done a very nice job here. |

| i really like the slight darkening in the background, which is just enough to sow the edge of your sweater. The detail is great, too... but it feels slightly oversharpened to me. Look at the eye on the left, and the teeth... i see halos! |

| nice clariy, expression, pose, and dof. a bit close. perhaps a less wide focal length to keep the facial features true to life. good overall. |

| Poor subject. Naww, just kidding. Good shot. What were you using for the catchlights? Octagonal softbox (the skin tones look pretty even) or a regular lamp of some kind? |
