Corporate wants a picture of my mug..... how about this one?

[kundalini]

The group of people I work with are mostly remote users (work from home) and in an effort to calm the restless natives, they are putting together a photo directory. As some of you may know, most of my self portraits aren't what you would call 'corporate friendly'. Last night I trimmed the beard, pulled the hair back and rattled off a few new shots to present. This was my choice to provide them.

Acceptable?​

Thanks for looking and your comments.​

too much blue on the face i think. Also your shirt is not on the top notch condition. You need to iron it and you want to make sure the collars are pointy and crisp. The way you have it now is a little rolled on the edge . Get it dry cleaned bro!

Looking handsome, Kundalini! I'd warm it up a bit, but otherwise it looks good!

I agree with Rausch, warm it up a tiny bit... a bit to blue/cool, but the picture rocks.

A little more light in the eyes maybe.

Nope. Fleshtones are too cool, and no offense, but you look a little bit effeminate in this shot.

Thanks everyone. I was editing this very early this morning and the WB seemed okay while I was waiting for my coffee to brew. I did warm it up a bit and brightened the eyes (thanks Big Mike) and a few other tweaks. Your comments are much appreciated.

and no offense, but you look a little bit effeminate in this shot.

That's okay Derrel..... I'm in touch with my feminine side. Was it my girlish figure that gave it away instead of the typical +50 y.o. beer belly? :lmao: I know who and what I'm made of.



Oh.... Schwetty, that's how I roll. A collared dress shirt is highly unusual for me nowadays, but ironed...... pfttt, done that for many, many years. I get what you're saying, just can't be bothered. The reshoot ain't gonna happen. Thanks.

It's fine, they're not going to sit there and criticize the picture. But from here your pose looks kind of robotic, like your trying too hard to pose. IMO
