I used a bit of sand for texture. I don't get dq'd sometimes for this, but others I do. The rules are very subjective at best. Oh well.

Sorry for the DQ -- I'd never have guessed it's an "assemblage" -- I still like it! :-)

Cool idea. Never thought of doing a portrait in broken glass... like the originality and colors/texture of the background. I think if it were cropped a little tighter on the glass (cut out some of that dead space to the right) it would have been a little better. 6

Well set up and a very interesting portrait. The colors are nice, but I feel the composition could be a bit stronger.
