Taken in front of a mirror, large window in the background.
Made two layers, selected the white point on the back layer to blow out the blinds. Removed color, cropped & USM.

Well a lot can be done to fix this image IMO. The first thing that pops out at me is the fact that the words are backwards. Obviously you shot this in a mirror. I would suggest like the others that you flip it in your editing program to make them read the right way. I don't really care for the crop as it cuts off your hair. Seems as if you lost something on the upload or during the editing process. Also the finger lines up perfectly with your hair. The background I think I would have left as is because it would fit your title better. Focus and lighting appears to be god though. Just maybe bumped the contrast a little to give the photo some depth.
I usually don't critique on titles, but I like how this one adds meaning to the image. The quality seems a bit noisy and lacking contrast, but nice shot overall.
Humorous concept for this challenge. I like the close crop, and I think black and white works well. Your face is in sharp focus, though I'd like the camera to be as well since it would provide extra interesting detail.
You have such a beautiful face to be hiding behind the camera. In photoshop you could have reversed this so the writing is not backwards (I find it distracting). Tonal conversion good. Image lacks drama but focused well. 7
Very good, however I think flipping the image would maybe have had a little more impact, with the Canon trademark etc being readable. Granted, you would then be left-eye dominant.... Hmmmmmm.
