My daughter and I were playing around while the camera, back drop and lights were set up. As I was going to sit down, I accidently pushed the remote that was in my other hand. My husband thought it would be funny for me to enter this in the Black and White Portrait II challenge. I hope you all find it as amusing as we did!

umm, not much of a portrait, background is too busy, not enough contrast and bad lighting

Was the camera on its way down? I think a normal face shot would have gotten higher scores.

I like the idea and the skin tones are just right but I would like to see a darker background.

Portrait implies face to me. As such this DNMC. Sorry...

portrait

noun
1. a painting of a person's face
2. a word picture of a person's appearance and character [syn: portrayal]
3. any likeness of a person; "the photographer made excellent portraits"

So you're portraying yourself as a hand and 2 legs? ok.
