I'm sure this won't score well, but I really don't care. I thought it was cool. People will undoubtably complain about the camera being in the picture as well as the fact that it isn't a tradional self portrait. I thought having the camera in the frame suggested that I was a photographer and that it was interesting because it shows how the effect of many hands was achieved but still takes a little while to comprehend. I thought the me in the smaller mirror looked just like a self-portrait on the wall, so I guess that's the self portrait shot. If you would like to see a more traditional self portrait of myself, check out my entry to the off-center subject challenge.

This is utterly confusing, but if I looked at it long enough, i...well who am I kidding I'd never figure it out. lol I do think it's really cool, but find the blurry hands a bit distracting from you. Overall nice concept though. Nice to meet you. ~Heather~
I like this, though I find it really hard to figure out where you actually are in the picture. Very disorienting. This is one I'd love to know how it was set up - it works really well. Like the framing with your hands.
Complex viewpoints here, that are engaging and fun! I'd like it just a tad darker, but that is my personal preference, not a mark against the photo. Nice work.
When looking at the thumbnail on this shot, I wasn't going to give it a very high score because I didn't care for the lighting and it seems a bit out of focus. However, I do like the kind of funkiness you get from using the mirror. Kind of makes you wonder, what's real and what's a reflection?
Woooooahhh.... I still can't quite get my mind around it! I love the idea, but It would work better for me if the hands were in focus (which, from looking at it, I can see would have been really hard!) Very creative.
