Thank you for all the comments. This was my first entry ever so I am very pleased with the rating. There were several reasons, both creative and technical, for the somewhat unconvential crop and after several revision settled on this one. I knew this would get mixed reactions but I'm glad some people liked it. I would have like to make some changes to the lighting and positioning of my face but unfortunately I couldn't devote all day to this image so I had to go with the best one I had at the time. My setup was rather crude which made attempting to make fine adjustments an exercise in patience. Thanks again everyone!
