No lighting or special make up. Used the channel mixer to get the tone so \"dirty\"
Last minute entry to try not letting my team down, but I still think this will let us all down.
And yes, a self portait.

Nope, I didn't cheat, the date was still set on New Zealand time but I was in Iceland.
Therefore the date said that I took the shot few hours AFTER the deadline passed, which of course is impossible, but dpc has a strict policy in these matters....
For images like this I like the noisy, gritty look -- sometimes I just grab the Blue Channel alone and drop it into a new grayscale document. Your model definitely appears to have a passing familiarity with the Grouse ... : )
School days for some... and I did indeed waste a fair few evading reality myself. This player looks like he is a bit long in the tooth to represent school days though. But that is not to say I don't like the photo. I do.
