HAH... love the way you're looking at yourself. Very fun portrait. I like the pink.

If this could be done again I would reshoot and put youself in one frame twice, instead of putting two photos together next to eachother.

You win!

cferroni said 822 days ago:

Not quite sure why, but this really works for me, the colors and relative starkness. Well done.

luminouslens said 822 days ago:

I love this! It's very creative. It's almost absurd with the bright pink wall and that deep blue bathrobe, but it's done so seriously that I don't really question it. I am not sure I can even comment on everything that I like about this: the way you are casually holding a coffee cup in one as if you were simply sitting there in the morning and someone took a picture of you, the way you are looking up to the other picture as if something happened to catch your attention and yet that must have been planned, the use of the pillow in the second picture. This is not a typical self-portait at all, but it's just so interesting to look at!

Very nicely done. Quite the diptych.

culberda said 822 days ago:

By far my favorite thus far. The colors, expression, set, exposure... everything about this image is fantastic.

I'm still not sure what this says about you Andy, but I do like it, especially the way your eyes are looking at yourself being silly. Are you schizophrenic?

smudo said 822 days ago:

sweet sweet shots! adding a pillow really adds to it;)

sannah said 822 days ago:

i want the right photo alone... nice wallpaper!

shashin said 821 days ago:

Definitely my favorite so far.... and that is awesome wallpaper.

George said 821 days ago:

Wow. Delightful shot. Terrific vision and execution. And the color of your chest in the right image looks almost identical to the wallpaper color. Intended? Or accidental?

shotage said 821 days ago:

George, I did tweak the colour on these shots but not for that purpose, I wanted it to be bright yet pale, if that makes any sense? So accidental is the answer.

sannah said 821 days ago:

the chest kind of looks more... pink, than bright and pale

shotage said 821 days ago:

It's probably reflected colour from the cushion.

this is very good. though the pink wallpaper looks a slightly different shade between the images. the left looks a bit brighter.
