This was originally taken just as a snap as i search and search for a photo of myself where i don't look awful. it was only a few monhs ago that i converted it to b+w and i like it much better. the focus is more on the expression and that my eyes are sharp is important as not only are they my best feature but i see the eyes as windows into the soul. you realy can tell a lot about someone just by looking at their eyes. This self portrait really does portray me and my charector.
