Challenge: Single Light Source (Basic Editing III)

 I thought I would give this challenge a try. I currently live on a cruise ship, so there's not really anywhere to set up a studio and my internet access is limited.

This is just a self-portrait I did in my small cabin with a blanket and a flash light hung from the ceiling. I know that's it probably not my best photo and that there are huge flaws in this picture that could have been fixed with Advanced editing, but I decided I was going to enter the challenge so that I would continue thinking about photography. I hope you'll enjoy.

Creative shot. I wish the hands were a little more focused and that the light was a bit more symmetrical.

nice concept! love the lighting, only thing I would change is, I wouldn't have the light showing so much there by your left arm.

Nice composition, IMO wish the light was evenly distributed to achieve the symmetry this pic represents, also would like better focus especially on the hands.

I really had to study this one. I like that I had to "work " for it. Nicely done. Maybe if the floor weren't so textured, but then again, maybe that adds to the intrigue. 7
