Self-portrait using the remote. Cropped from a much larger original; despeckling and remove noise filters did not do enough. Gaussian Blur on Blue channel helped some. Curves adjusted to better depict color of fabric. If I have the time I will reshoot with more appropriate lighting and camera settings.
If I don't, then I'll pretend that the sort of flat color and graininess make it look like a painting.
// edit 12/31: I tried a reshoot, but I couldn't really get a better image. I'm afraid that the Olympus 400 just isn't up to it. No doubt I will be marked down significantly for poor sharpness and excessive grain. If I make 5.5, I'll be happy; if I don't, I'll be horribly depressed.
Not really, but I'd rather get over 5.5 than not.
