| I was just surfing thru the site and saw the thumbnail of this shot. Even as a thumbnail this one stands out far and above the rest. I don't think you could have picked a more appropriate setting for your self portrait, as the rugged surroundings only enhances you and your candid glory. Some of my favourite shots are my accidental shots, and your accidental self portrait is a prime example of a "right time, right place" magical moment. Cheers, Sandra. |

| This is still my favorite photo of all time on DPC. I'm not sure if I've ever seen a photo that so well evokes a mood. This should be hanging in a museum somewhere. |

This self portrait of yours has been my personal favourite for as far as I can remember - and I cant believe I have never left a comment on it! So here I am, though a little late, but better than never, to leave a comment on this wonderful, fascinating, photo.
what do I like about this?
- the model: inviting, warm, and looked like he has stories to tell.
- the lighting: inclusive of the exposure, I'd say you've captured it well. Just look at the hair, and the face. Superb.
- tilted: it must have been accidental? but it works great. it somwhow makes the window-frame (naturally framed) stronger.
- editing: the desaturation is very very suitable, with a brownish hue. Love it.

This image has something special about it that we all strive for a certain intrigue and mystery with a subject that looks like he is everyone's friend so warm and inviting. simply superb I wish it was available for print. |

| Yes, there is a B&W film I get this look with .. but never mind. I imagine one could do the same thing with levels and curves - gotta try. I've now been at this for two or three hours and even though B&W is overused this is the first photo I've seen in thie competition that has the visceral feel of a B&W print from film. It's a nice look (gotta check out the vintage section of this site, I guess) I like the composition, lighting, and richness of texture in hair, iron, wood, plaster, and chickenwire. Very nice. |

Aweseome shot, I love the tones in it and it wasn´t hard to give this a 10. Hope you do well in the challenge.
Edit: I just finished voting and I felt compelled to come back and mention that this is the only 10 I gave this challenge and I just added it to my favorites. This is one of the best environmental portraits I have ever seen. Keep up the good work! |

| Great photo JJ. You not ony framed yourself with the wooden frame and chickenwire but something tells me that the J shaped metal at the left isn't accidental. |

| Exquisite tones, this has a superb feel to it. I'm not sure I understand the context as a self portrait/story, but it works visually. Bumping to 10. |

| Good idea, flawlessly executed. The subject's pose, examining the spectacles, is equally thoughtful, not just for its originality but also because it creates the opportunity to feature the hands as well as the head. Maybe the "frame" and it's associated foreground props is just a bit too dominant or too busy? 7. |

I like the mystery of this picture. I find myself wondering, why is he sitting in this weird shack in front of a window partially covered by chicken wire, while meanwhile inspecting his glasses?
It's weird but good, and the tones and angles are great. |

Lovely, lovely tones. You're looking great too - in fact if I had even half that Nick Nolte wild style I'd be doing self-portraits all the time!
Just a touch over sharpened, but it's a beautiful print I bet. You should be up with the ribbons with this one.
Cheers

| In my time on DPC I have given very few 10s... This is one of them. This image is amazing. I don't know if it's who you are, but I have rarely seen such synergy from every discernable element of an image. |
