Just playing around with different facial expressions, plus I wanted it to look different to my portraite that I did for magazine. I have had a lot of time constraints this week, as I have no computer for a few days. I have to use someone elses.
Anyway this photo was taken using a hand held camera, as I do not have a timer. Its a little soft, and I am sure some people will hate that, but ultimately I hope it adds to the emotion of it.
You can see a white dot on my check (where the light picks up on something), and also one in my left eye. Yes they are real tears.

Very emtotional shot. There's a bit too much black space at the top of the photo for me and I think I'd like to have seen just a hint of your lips through the fingers to get across even more feeling. But you'ld have to be happy with this shot. It's great - 8
Very good expression of shock or disbelief, but doesn't represent sadness to me. However I don't judge according to title. You did a good job on this. Congrats.
The expression in your eyes comes off more scared then sad to me, but I really like the expression. The reflection coming off of your right eye is a little distracting. I like the color. 7.
