self portrait in blue, trying to work for the next exam. It's already late and there is no way I can find some motivation
it's not that original, I have to agree !
I played with contrast, shadows and colors in PS

hey bro, nice PP applied here. the details are there despite the shadows and the localized lighting. nice little crampy study area you've got there... it reminds me of my good old student days when i want everything i need within my reach including the radio/cd player.

Burning the midnight oil eh?

Blue was a good choice as it leads the viewer to think of moonlight. The composition is good, and I love all that stuff laying around. Being the curious type, I found myself having a good look about figuring out a bit about you and the life you lead. So in terms of portraiture, this is very fine indeed as it shows not only you as in 'you in a physical sense', but moreover, you in who you are and where you spend a lot of your time.

Very well done indeed

Take Care,

Lance

Wow. That's pretty cool. Great lighting and sharpness. Cool color too. nice idea for a self portrait! JP

Nice to meet you in your corner of the world. I like the dark atmosphere. Shame the desk light overexposed some areas. Perhaps increase the f-stop or adjust the white balance for that. The blue tones are nice, and I like the pose with your hand over your mouth. I think it's a good original idea. Good luck with your exam.

The system of sound, the keybord help to complete. But with that color, and with the piece of... It's probably tissy hiding a window... It have some look hightech!

Very good composition!

It is far from being non-original...the atmoshere created works so well here...and the cold colour tones so appropriate with the hi-tech details in your picture. Excellently done!

You shouldn't get any smiley because you are not studying for exams... but what can i say me neither i am not studying. Original shot.. I suposse u are having the remore in your left hand here.

looks like study of yourself.

C'est très net, très détaillé, vraiment très bien fait et le choix du traitement bleu apporte une dimension spéciale à cette photo! Le regard est d'abord attiré par l'éclairage et le centre puis découvre et toi et ton environnement, c'est superbe, bravo!
