Great idea ( I see someone else had the same idea also) and superb technical execution. Will take the Blue ribbon imo but if not will definitely place 2nd or 3rd. 10

Self Puzzling Portrait

Great idea ( I see someone else had the same idea also) Nicely executed. You might have considered leaving a few pieces of the puzzle out for more effect (the missing pieces so to speak) I like the combination of B&W with color here and the background is interesting too. Not too keen on the angled frame as I feel it sort of unbalances the total image. 8
