 I kinda rushed this as one plan failed after another. The original image i had in mind was sortof a half clark kent/half super man portrait.

I lost my model, and the idea definitely wasn't working well with my face. So i modified, and ended up with this.

This image still feels a bit incomplete, but i wanted to enter something as part of the team. i think if i have the time again someday, I'll shoot a more complete version.

edit: The idea behind this final shot was "show both the Good and the Bad in a subject to make it a 'Human Portrait'". Based on the response I've got, I think its looking just plain evil... I'll work on my setup a bit more in the future.

Mixed signals. A Middle Eastern looking man but a western saying in landscape orientation. Not easy to vote this one...
