Description
it's very rare for me to do a self-portrait, simply because i don't like putting photos of me on the internet. luckily enough for you, you don't get to see the shell that walks in the day, you get to see the inside of the shell which is distorted enough to make it satisfactorily unrecognizable.
you get to see the side that burns and glows in the day, as well as the other side, that over time has been so stretched out of proportion that i myself can sometimes have a hard time recognizing.
it's also not often that i use photoshop for anything other than touch-ups, but we're doing it in multimedia this week, so i figure i may as well give this photo-editing thing a go.
lemme know what you think

I can recognize you! But you look sad. Po you. I love how you made your eye look on the left side. It looks like a sunset on your right side, which is awesome. Yay for awesome editing!
i took the original photo for a roll-over flash thing on my uni web folio. i needed a high-contrasting image that didn't look bubbly-happy. this image looks sadder because of the way the lines are accentuated on my face and especially on the lips. the image on the right side is the "Free" image in my gallery...
I had to squint a bit nah just kidding , but yeah I see you. For some reason, your expression keeps reminding me of bruce willis in his john mclane style but that's probably because I should lay of the crack. Nice effects though.
its crazy! gorgeously crazy piece! impressive work:)
How come u never gave me this one mate ???? Its fascinating, always thought thats what lay inside that placid geeky boy ;)
