    Using yourself as a model makes it much easier because you're free, you don't have to worry if it doesn't turn out because your not wasting anyone's time and you'll the most forgiving if you have to re shoot ;)

    I really like this one (but I expect to see more) there's a shyness about it that's a nice change from a lot of male self portraits ....

    I'd like to see it a bit more sharp and a smidge more contrast...hope you don't mind I took a liberty. I like the blur that was added it adds an extra elemnt that keeeps it from being a sterile shot...

    well done...do you like it? and let us see more
