This will get blasted. I'm sure most will hate the processing and hate the idea. It will either be too much, or not enough. But I wanted to do something different from what I might normally do. Like put up a gritty shot of myself with no hiding of my flaws. Can't clone out imperfections in basic! Let the 1's, 2's and 3's come!

Shot with a single SB-800 from above into a DIY Beauty Dish with a silver reflector below. Triggered with Pocket Wizards. Sorry, no setup shot.

Very cool. My favorite of the "taped-mouth" shots in this challenge.

So many "tape over the mouth" images in this challenge. I have lost count.
It just does not evoke the feeling of "Silence" to me. The title also says nothing to me. This to me says "Silenced" but not "Silence" 5

Considering the other pictures in the challenge, this is not very original, but I like the execution.

I don't like the way the lighting has created a strange shadow in his right eye, but I otherwise I like the dramatic lighting, and the high contrast.

I like the processing, but it could do with being a little sharper.
