I can relate to the clowning aroun with photoshop. I am still learning it. I love the composition of the photo but I am not too keen on the low contrast. I feel it takes away from such a nice photo. I think if you went with high contrast it would make this portrait pop. Just my opinion. This still is a very nice self portrait. Good luck in the challenge.

Very interesting effect - really highlights your eyes and your lips. I like it.

Its good to try new things but, this pp makes you a bit washed out. I'll bet your eyes are dazzling in the original.

Excellent composition and colours. Detail on the frost is just amazing.

Blown on purpose I suppose ...What is that shade above your left eye? I, personally, would have added red to the lips, to make if more powerful, it looks like you face is all flat like this, with some of the curves gone ...

I like it! I really like these high key photos. The composition and focus of this would look great in a traditional style too, but this is really interesting!
