When you left that comment on my SP entry, I immediately went through to finish voting to find yours and when I saw it I knew. I agree with other that the lighting needs work, but I gave you points for sheer guts.
Try this one again using a Home Depot clip light. Put it where your hand would be if you arm was 45 degrees above the bed. Straighten the bed up a bit, too. ;)
This is grossly under-rated picture. Though I feel the lighting is little harsh, I liked the "different" angle for self-portrait. Maybe softer light/ diffused glow (in PP) might have made the lighting little softer. Such a beutiful face could have been capture in even better way :) I congratulate you for submitting something different from other submissions. Goodluck for the future submissions.
That's pretty brave. :) High marks for courage... kind of harsh lighting under the chin, and the focus drop-off could have been shorter for a nice effect.
This is not a well executed photo. There are distracting elements in the background, the lighting is uninteresting, and unflattering around the neck, and dpchallenge is about photography, not seeing how high a nude photo of yourself will score.
