Here are a couple of new ones...very different looks from before. I'm not sure these are up to snuff though but I figured it was worth the shot. Comments welcome.

Here's a B&W version of the last one. Maybe a better title is "Wicked..."

Photo number 2 is very nice, with more highlight on your face I think you have it. As for the missing fingers in photo number 3 :dunno .

:jawdrop Wow. You have come up with a number of outstanding self portraits, any one of which would be an outstanding entry. I find that I like every one that you have posted, each for a different reason. Love "Wicked" - the title is so apt. Of this bunch, I think "Empty Handed" is my favorite. "Hand of Fire" is spectacular however. Overall, I am still biased in favor of the one of you lighting a cigaret outside in the dark. It is the most evocative to me. Alas, my personal responses are no guide to how well a photo will do in the challenge. I'm sure you will chose well. :D

VaThanks F.G.! I like that one as well. I'm still torn. The portraits show different aspects and reflect different moods. Not sure yet which one to go for. I guess I can decide at the last minute! :huh
