Unidentified flying Object head.
Heavy Photoshop work, distortions (shear, spherize) on the self-portrait, then cloned over a nasty weather scene in front of my house, added lens flares and finished with Nik Color Efex Pro filters.

I like it.

Very cool image! Love your face.

You have a unique and original style in art, it's trademark and very clearly yours, from the compositional richness, to the particular colour temperatures you choose.
Entertaining and a little spooky!
