Slightly Different Kind Of Self Portrait - Using An Ice Hockey Helmet!

Hi All,

This was a random idea I had with my friends ice hockey helmet. I used a bounce flash so my eyes were in shadow and then dodged the white of my eyes to bring them out a little (and obviously darkened around the outside of the helmet). I was kind of trying to create something of a menacing look (one I'm not usually all that good at!)

Shot with a Canon 30D, Canon EF-S 18-55 and Sigma EF-500 DG Super flash gun. All thoughts much appreciated!

Dodgin your eyes made them look REALLY weird....
Except from that its not bad

That was partly my intention. I'm looking to the left so there's more white showing than anything else! Thanks for your comment.

i kinda like it. its different. I think you could crop it really tight and be super cool! always fun to try something different.
