For the Male Portrait current challenge, if i was to do a self portrait, would that to be counted as a portrait, since portrait is such a wide genre?

is this against the challenge rules?

feedback would be a great help :)

As long as you truly are male. Better wear tight pants.

I don't think portrait is too "wide open" --- seem pretty tightly defined to me.

But yes, a portrait of a male, would and could include the male photographer.

If you don't put 'self portrait' in the title nobody will know. Keep those comments in the comment block describing the photo and the voters will find post challenge!
