My one half is dark

Actually, I quite like the one you submitted. The low saturation makes it more "mysterious" to me. But the other is nice too.

Nice work.

Hmm, I thought I left you a comment. Congrats on your placement in this challenge. A good idea and a lot more photogenic than me ;)

Very nice--I really like the graphic feel, but the pose to me is a bit more awkward.

ME MYSELF & I'M WEIRD

Hey Brando, I liked this one. My favorite kind of shot. Excellent poses and nice time/multiple exposure. I mean REALLY. I don't even think I can make the face on the right!

To me the only thing that I could have seen improving is the "grayness" of it--I don't know if that was intentional. You might try to play with the levels on it--I can see this working in high key, which is what it might become with some playing.

Thanks for your comments on mine, and hey, you weren't far behind in score to me anyway (and you have a favorite!) See you around the site!

My Picasso

Thanks for your comments everyone. I am not sure if the low score reflects people not getting it, or people just not liking it, or in particular the grain. But here's a link to the portrait I challenged myself to imitate:

Picasso's Self Portrait during the cubism period

Of course, this was harder under DPC rules, and it took me many takes. For those who still don't see, my profile and my front shots are there.

Actually, looking at this again, I think it's quite nice!

Very nice, I like the star effects and the motion blurred lights. Seems to be a slight tilt to the right you might want to adjust.

Very nice! I like this one very much, but you might want to burn in, or use layers and layer blend multiply, to work on the overexposed areas on the foreground tower.

Returning for comment. Love the lighing, and the wincing glaring look. The background is a bit distracting here and maybe not the right setting for the foreground "mood". But it's an excellent portrait, so on second review, bumping up. Now one of my top picks (though there are a lot of them up there now)
