it was a cloudy day, a little breezy. the photo went through so many variations from me sitting on a chair, to me holding up my hand, carrying the chair, just standing. Finally, I realized I really didn't have a clear and concise vision of my portrait, i just knew i didn't want to have a close up photo of my face (too cliche). anyways, I started experimenting a bit, tilting the camera, different facial expressions, and finally, this came about. I liked the leading lines in the photo too. I cropped it a little tighter, changed it to black and white, had to play around the dodge/burn tool so my face was visible, i sharpened some spots, cloned out telephone lines on the left side. Overally, I am pretty happy with the results. It's not a typical portrait so I hope people don't judge me on that.
