Hi all! I'm not sure if this is the right area to post this, but I'd sure like some C&C :)

It's my self-portrait, but... well you see :)

At first I thought, "Okay, he took a photo of an Egyptian head-thing at the museum, maybe there's another photo under it"

Then I realized, OH WAIT, that's HIM!

I think it's pretty cool. But I'd like to see the blue around the eyes a little less... bright. I think it looks too blue that it doesn't match the rest of the photo.

But I still think it's a cool pp none the less

Oh yeah I guess I should have been more clear :)

Thanks! I've linked to the originals:

Nice PP work, I like it. Where did you get the background photo? I could use that.

Feeling a little self-important, are we? LOL

Nice work. I'm sure it took more than a few seconds fiddling with the curves to get that image.

Rascalphoto: I just searched flickr for Creative Commons images tagged "pharaoh death mask." I emailed the guy afterward, letting him know I borrowed his CC image.

MarKap77: Aren't the most fun pictures overly self-important? :) Actually I like working with self-portraits because (1) I can do whatever I want and not worry about upsetting anybody, and (2) I can reshoot whenever I want!
