Very evokotive (sp?). Usually I don't like photos with a lot of noise, but the graininess suits this and looks deliberate. Well done.

I am not voting in this challenge but wanted to leave a comment...

I could go into the technicals and comment on your editing (which I actually really like) but for me that's not what this image is about.

On first seeing this, without pause or thought, I burst into tears. Every part of me wishes I could wipe your tears away and stop the pain and suffering this self portrait shows. Maybe I have an advantage as I know what you look like when you smile so seeing you so openly displaying how vulnerable, hurt and sad you are here makes this all the more powerful for me.

Don't let whatever score you receive for this image take away how important it is for you Andi.

Nice self portrait, you look good like this :-P I'm not sure what the toy camera is your playing with...surely your 'real' camera is much more manly than this? :o)

Excellent editing and the use of the wide angle has helped give a real dramatic feel to the image :o)

I really like the position of the horse in the shot and the processing suits the subject nicely. However I would like to have seen this a little sharper :o)

Nice DOF and I like the position of the bird in the frame, the colours however do feel a little 'dull' :o)
