Just wondering what everyone thinks. Does it look like there is to much PP? and is it to squared for you liking? C&C welcome

i think it is well done, not too much PP and i think that the whole square thing works for this image. do you have any other recent attempts?

none that I have processed...I found it very hard to get focus where I wanted when I was shooting myself lol. It kept wanting to focus on my forehead lol

ok I got another one that I messed with from the same shoot, not as sharp as I would have liked but I like the chiaroscuro look I got out of it :)

and I promise there is nothing wrong with the right side of my face lol. Alot of these were shot with window light so I had one side really bright and the other really dark

My only criticism of the first shot, is the blob of colour in the bottom left hand corner is a little distracting, and I think I'd prefer if the eye were a little lower in the shot (really minor quibble!).

The processing, exposure etc is spot on though.

Yup - that's the bit - you may be able to just clone it out or something.

Don't do it!!! Look where it left Picasso!:)

Nice shot. I like it. Your eye is so clear, you could almost have put a message in the reflection.
