With your hair styled like that it makes the composition feel a little cramped in my opinion but nice photo anyways

hmm that's a good thought, hadn't even noticed!

what lighting did you use?

Just step the camera back a few paces and you'll be fine. Much better than my self-portraits. I will continue to practice until I get something half as nice as this one.

Rosy, I sorta got lucky and snapped this under just a florescent light in my bathroom. It was kind of a passing idea that was a guess. The light is inside some strange paneling that acts like a natural diffusion fill light, so I figured, hell its probably as good as any

What did you do with this as far as processing goes? I like the effect

Well, luck was on your side. It came out very nice

Thanks! As for processing, I edited out a clock on the wall and just did a little color curving.
