One of my favorites, because it tells me so much about you. Well executed - although the light from the window looks overexposed. In my top ten this week.
The title would suggest that you are the person in the foreground. The focus, however, has settled on the guy on the stool behind you, leaving you slightly more blurred than motion would account for; the glare from the window adds to that.
It's still a very nice shot, good tones and a lovely setup - I think it could have been more with better focus and maybe a bit less glare if that could have been achieved, though.
Interesting shot - but the inclusion of two people makes it difficult to determine who the self portrait is of. Perhaps a lighter shirt should have been worn for the shot as it doesn't make you stand out from the background, and because of the darkness, the light from the window is overexposed and appears a bit too harsh
Nice one - like the idea to show your life rather than just your looks - this one grows on me the more I look at it. I could see it in a gallery. Yes I know the window is blown out but that doesn't bother me.

I like this - the pose and the onlooker add balance (no pun intended) - I wouldn't mind seeing the original b and w version though as I'm not sure the sepia adds to it - 8
Focus and clarity are better on the guy in back. If you are the guy in front, I would hve either blurred out the background, or told your buddy to move. Light coming through the right is quite a bit too bright, but the shot is definately different. Just think that the guy in back is taking away from the guy in front. If you are the guy in the back, than the guy shouldn't be in front. One or the other.
