 Me taking a picture of myself, looking out over the ciy at dawn, with the sun just starting to break through the clouds and the mist in the valleys.

Sharpened, adjusted lighting & contrast and color shifted the blue, cloned out some power lines and a couple of spots. Ran it through neat image.

I gave you a 6 but never left a comment...It's really hard to make a self-portrait, isn't it.

The moment in this photo is good..."Contemplation" is a perfect title. Not quite silhouette, the lack of detail on the near side of the profile makes the blocking-out of your head un-pleasing to me. Had you been on "this side" of the camera, I'm sure you would have realized that. It is the setting that is so appealing, here. The perfect moment in the morning when it's right to be alone....

Beautiful colors and background! The head kind of distracts from the background, though, and could also have been a little better on the contrast.
