This is pretty. The wisps of clouds makes it look as though something were trying to protect it.

Greetings from the Comment Bomb Squad!

In your self portrait series, you have a great ability to show and capture your emotion. That is often hard for a guy and I am envious of that. Here the lighting is nice and dramatic with lots of shadows and it appears to be your signature style. The placement of the hand, the eyes and mouth slightly dropping show a certain vulnerability. Nice job!

Greeting from the Comment Bomb Squad!

Just browsing through your portfolio stopping at images that are interesting to me. Here the dramatic lighting overhead and forward of the model is used for good dramatic effect here! Great shadows in all the right places. The facial expression and the pose give off the feel of hardened executive power. Tho chair is a great prop with the rollers at the bottom.
