That's me wearing a mask with X. This is a HDR photo created from 3 shots. This was my first time using studio lighting(ARRI 1000w x2). I cast a key light from top and a fill light from bottom. Hope you can feel the "reticence".

I was inspired by LalliSig, thanks to him. And I can use this photo as my profile photo.^^

I'm not feeling the weird colors and harsh lighting, sorry. But a clear X with an interesting concept still gets a 5 from me.

I've looked at this image a good half dozen times before coming back to comment. So many textures and colors here, it is quite amazing. I love the dramatic lighting against the dark bg. The idea is dramatic and graphic as well; I could see it as a book cover in fact.

It looks a little cartoon-like, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but an awesomely cool photo and excellent idea. If I held my tongue then I wouldn't be able to tell you I gave your photo a 9.
