Challenge: Mug Shot (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Canon EOS-350D Rebel XT
Location: my room
Date: Mar 22, 2008
Galleries: Portraiture, Self Portrait

 This was really just my excuse to have fun with makeup. And to cure my boredom.

It was pretty quickly and sloppily put together and shot in my room with a self timer and my shnazzy new external flash unit. It was otherwise pretty dark, so I got a little too much noise and not quite as much sharpness as I would have liked.

I didn't know how to solve the name card thing, considering I didn't have anything I could use as a convincing prop. That's actually my photography portfolio I'm holding up (the "writing" being conveniently out of frame). I only learned after I took this that they don't even make them hold the card anymore. Go figure.

hehe nice title. not sure the vignetting or the green/blue cast work for this shot though.

Great makeup and lighting backed up with effective processing. Not sure if the fist should be more or out of shot but that bit of the pose is my only niggle.

The makeup is very beleivable. Would have been nice if you had a "police" type background.

Shouldn't have the fist, the blood out of the nose should not be there. The police would have cleaned you up first. The background should be flat and even. Had potential tho...give it a 5.

Without the vignetting, this would have been one of my top picks.

good defiance, but if it was a guy why is there (what looks like) silver eye makeup on her knuckles?
