Thanks to everyone that took the time to vote and comment on my entry. I really appreciate them.
I'm always reluctant to enter a self portrait. This one I didn't mind probably because the shot always brings back very nice memories of this trip. The shot was taken in Copenhagen while we stopped for a quick lunch break. The lighting in this restaurant was fantastic, semi dark with bright noon day sun shining in.
While the shot is somewhat posed, I actually did have quite a bit on my mind and it shows on my face. But that's a story for another time I guess.
Here are some alternates that I pondered entering. Some of these are from the same trip.

I do wonder if he is sitting alone or are we the other active party in this composition who is sitting with him at the table. He is distracted from the task of eating and if we are indeed the other person at the table we have finished our portion of the dinner while our friend still has yet to eat his half. His mind is indeed elsewhere with the faraway look in his eyes. He is distracted and is/has not finished his food. This makes me wonder what has so captured his attention or imagination that he has lost focus. Nicely captured.
