Self portrait on texture

Wonderful, Pierre, a no-nonsense patriarch. I think this is you portraying your own father.

Original beautiful self-portrait, Pierre! The first time I see you "with a tie". I guess the official attributes could be borrowed from another image. In any case, this trick with the imposition of texture softens the image "with a tie" and adds a bit of ironic overtones. Well done! Congratulations! Sincerely, Tatiana

Tatiana, thank you for this masterpiece of critique! PDE

Thank you, Jack! You may be right about my father thing, he used to be "tied and costumed", me never! Cheers to that! PDE

A very beautiful and artistic portrait, the result of applying this texture is fascinating and effective, ciao Giangiorgio

Sehr schön! Regards, Franz

Thank you, Giangiorgio! The model was applied to the existing photo with the texture! PDE

Vielen Dank, Herr Weber! PDE

Creative and well done Pierre. Reminds me of a 14th century fresco. Regards Patrick

Pierre,

I wish I was so handsome ;)

Well done!,

ZT,

Long time no see, Zbigniew! Thank you for your compliment! PDE

Tied, not shaken. Pierre you're missing a glass of martini :))

What use of an empty glass, pal! I drank it up at once in a manner of a beer drinker, ha! Thank you for your compliment! PDE

Pierre, my apologies for being rather late. This self-portrait gives me the impression that, aside from your role as master photographer, you also taught at a university (probably literature or philosophy). You have a distinguished, yet intense, look. Clearly this is not an ordinary portrait. To me, it appears as if you overlaid a multicolored, textured background over the original image. In my opinion, the result is a photograph that has the distinctive look of having been taken with an antique camera. Most definitely a favorite!! - - My best always, michael

Super comment, Michael! Thank you, my friend! PDE

Fine work, Pierre, I love it. Great balance between the portrait and the texture. This texture and mix really adds something to the portrait.

Welcome and thank you, Mike! PDE

Nice gritty intimidating self portrait. I can imagine you as a bouncer at a Nobel Laureate award ceremony!

How nice! Thank you, Jack! PDE

After seeing this, I am a bit too intimidated to request comments on my photos ... Very interesting and very original self portrait, PDE ...

Hi, my long time not seen friend! Thank you, Rejith for your special kind of compliment! PDE

I like the effects!
