A Long Day at Work (Self Portrait)

Several Photo's taken at 16mm/F13 (various shutter speeds) and

combined using Fred Miranda DRI Pro. Worked in photoshop using

grunge techniques.

I love all the tones and it all works well with the expression. This is a really telling photo. Beautiful Work!

WOW! Amazing piece of art. Flawless!

wow, Really nice work.

David, you have done an incredible job of getting my attention with this image! The dark tones give it an almost "scary" feel that makes a person want to look harder! 7/7 from me!

one of the BEST pictures i have seen here!! very well done! this i must try! regards Amin. 7/7

7/7 from me! Thanks for teaching me. Bye the way, what is the best wide and normal lens for NikonD70, if you know.

Thanks!

Wow David, without a doubt the most compelling self portrait I've seen. Wonderful work! I love how the bright "reflected" image synch's with the two overhead light fixtures. Thanks so much for sharing

Really like the lighting, tone and colours you used here...give special mood to the image. Regards, Abdul

Great shot. The lighting makes it and creates the mood perfectly! Good title too! Bravo!

Congrats.

Fantastic! Great!

Very well done, bravo.

Nice concept, and execussion.

very interesting lighting and texture. can you elaborate a bit on what your 'grunge' technique is? and how was this picture lit? . . . anyway, splendid work!

Great shot, I would also like to hear about this "grunge technique" it sounds interesting and looks superb.

VERY cool shot... worthy of a "top photo"!!

 

I love the "self expression" (double meaning)...

 

and .... oh yeah... one of a first top photos with the 5D...

 

good job!! creepy and David Lynch-esque... LOVE it!

Great work!!!...Regards.

Excellent work dear David....

I so rarely see a Photoshop piece that stands out as this one does. Excellent taste, well worth the effort on your part.

excellent work , buenisimo!!!

It must have been one hell of a day!

I greatly appreciate each one of your comments. I will post more on my "grunge" technique at a later time. I happen to be working in San Diego this week. Great place to work, at least better than the last job!
