EVEN IT IS LATE TO COMMENT, THIS LOOKS MORE LIKE A 'SILUETTE' HIGH KEY SHOULD NOT HAVE DEEP BLACKS.

Nice self portrait study (you're very brave and self-confident). For my very inexperienced eye however, I find the whites almost too bright...sorry

Sorry but I just don't like this one ... probably because of lost details (caused by high contrast) you should have used a litle less of that!

nice lines. great contrast. only nit pick would be that your shouldnt have cut ur hand off and made it come right to the upper left corner instead. would have made the photo flow for me. still a 8 for me

the contrast is great, but the pose makes your arms look broken-6
