    Self Portrait in Picture Frames

    Just got done with this one and i'm still in "wow holy crap this looks cool" mode for the time being so i had to share. I've got a series of 5x7 frames on my table right now. This is my reflection in them.

    THAT's Cool

    that is pretty cool...maybe boost the contrast a bit...but it's a great photo even as is...wow...good idea

    Thanks for the suggestion and especially for your kind words. Tried upping the contrast but, it just brough it up too much--the way I took it makes the whole image kinda touchy. Upping it makes my eye on the right side of the photo overly hidden in whiteness (its over a flamingo photo) and the left eye overly hidden in blackness (on the black part of a sunflower) I dunno, perhaps i'm just trying to add too much contrast after having already messed with levels...somewhere in here I could probably rebalance things on it. I'll repost if I ever do

    just played with levels and burned and dodged a few areas and sharpened it...I think it's an interesting image regardless of the contrast again
