The concept of a home drill as a way to pierce the ears --is about as painful to see as it looks. Ouch the the nth degree! Definitely a 'you're doing it wrong' moment. This too makes me squirm that I can't 'sit' long enough to offer a detailed critique on other than the lighting is a bit odd in a few places (such as the shadow blobs on the fingers).
We have some seriously deranged (and masochistic) people on DPC...Really well done, although I don't understand the odd purple blotchiness all around the image.
