[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I lost a bet with Sotiris so as task I had to make a photo of a lie... I put some funny clothes and there I was for another self-portrait...
I only use the window available light for the shadows and as pp I used a B&W layer blended at 70% in the hard light mode for a sloppy look and harsh shadows.

Ola Aida! Fantastic scene. Beautiful girl. Wonderful pose. Good background. Original capture. Saude!

Aida,
O fundo púrpura contra as roupas pretas funcionou muito bem para dar atmosfera a foto. Tratamento em PS ficou muito bom.
TFS,
Wellington

Excellent selfportrait, Aida.
This is studio work of high level. Just missing the light and smoke from the sigaret. But ehh.. still 10 point from me.
Best regards, Jan

Good morning Aida
Indeed the shadows, the asset of this compo, are very dramatic and the purple bg with its fine texture creates a nice effect
Compliments
Argiris

Nice light, nice PP - I like the effect of the strong light and shadow. The patterns of your subject and the coat on the wall are very good, the colours are strong.
Well done
Rew

Olá Aida,
Á parte a ironia (e tantas vezes verdade) do título, que adoro, a verdade é que o autoretrato está óptimo, muito cromático, com o apontamento do casaco a quebrar a monocromia do b/g. Excelente.
(PS. Pelo «brilho casamenteiro» suspeito serem esses os sapatos que te deram cabo dos pés no casamento da tua amiga). Amigas saudações e tem um óptimo «we». I'll be back, mb

Ciao Aida, lovely selfportrait with fantastic pose and great expression, very well done, ciao Silvio

:) You did it! I'm happy I was the reason of such a nice picture... thank you Aida.
