Whoa. Intense Chris. And I thought you had freckles! :D (Is this you?)I like how we are getting just a hint of the eye through the darkness.

I already know the answer to that. No need to tell me! :) #8509871Annette Carr April 26, 2010
The shadows work mysteriously on this image, the expression is priceless. And you captured it without being behind the camera (I presume it is a self portrait). It is spectacular! It is so difficult to get a good photograph on the self timer, you did an amazing job. #8571343Chris N. Sweet April 26, 2010
