Thanks! A little known trick I use is to add a bronze solid color layer over it set to soft light blending mode, just to add a touch of warmth and "life". Usually the opacity of said bronze layer varies between 25% and 70% depending on how I want it to look.I'm absolutely in love with your B&W, such nice hightlights
Haha, thank you.Nicely done. The Freddy Mercury mustache works well for you.
I hope you can find a tripod that works for you. There are multiple types of tripods; many are a PITA to use. Here's the fifth tripod I've owned, for 20-plus years now. I think for portrait work, or location work, this is the best tripod ever designed because it allows you to level, or do a height adjustment, in one to five seconds, with almost one-handed ease. It's not light, but it leaves you no excuses for having taken a shot from a less-than-ideal height or less-than-idea camera placement. Instead of needing to unlock and lock three, or six, or nine locks...you merely squeeze one of the three triggers, and then either lift up or push down on the tripod, and the tripod adjusts to the perfect height...then you let go of the trigger, and you're locked, and level...in as I said, one to five seconds. There is no other tripod like this on the market. This tripod is a lifetime-grade investment. You and your work is worth it. Go from a seated, half height portrait, to a standing, head-and shoulders camera height...in five seconds.
Thank you!I wish I'd taken that one! Well done!

Lol, you should be a spokesperson for them, because you have me sold on it. Thanks Derrell, I'll look into ordering one of these.
Yes they are! Thank you very much.Great Shot, Self-Portraits Are Harder To Do Than What They Appear To Be, But You Most Definitely "Nailed It" - Great-Selfie!

Lol, thank you very much! I hope to do many more, especially after picking up that tripod @Derrel recommended.That has to be the best self portrait I have ever seen (and knew it was a self portrait)! Very well done!!!
