My First go at B&W Self-Portrait

(Administrative or Moderator please close this, and delete as I posted my photo in the wrong thread for C&C portraits, I'm deeply sorry. )

I was going for a high exposure 1960 feel, so I used myself as the subject of the picture. Thank you for viewing.

Hey. Your picture is very smooth and maybe just the hands received a bit too much light (tiny bit), but I think you missed your goal. It's too good, look of 60ties was created by TriX 35mm film and is nowhere that perfect. Maybe you shoud rather use this LOMO camera to do it.

Thank you for your input!

well I didn't want a direct 60's type of picture, I wanted some modernized feel to it. For the lack of better words a sense of 60's influence. If I missed my goal too much, I guess it still makes a good B&W hahaha
