I liked your entry (gave it a 7). The outtake has a bit more drama, but I like the connection to the eyes in the entry.

I only wish i looked like this on my passport photo. There is a saying that goes "If you look like your passport photo, seek medical attention. There is a chance that you are sick". Maybe it's deliberate, so when you show your passport to the border officials, after a 16 hour three layover flight and a random strip search, you look exactly like the photo.

Technically proficient ... something about the expression is off-putting IMO.
