I had a couple of nice shots, one each for Pure and Transitions, when I thought of redoing a triptych I did for the 30-day self-portrait project last September:
But of course, this had to be a single shot. I'd bought a piece of black cloth for a backdrop since then, which gave me the dark background.
I also now have three "flashes," because I own three cameras that have timers. Setting them to various delays allowed me to change positions between flashes.
The color comes from clear plastic notebook section separators: red on the left and yellow on the right.
And yes, I really did shave half my face. :) In fact, I went to bed that way and had to remember to shave the other half before I went to work!
Post-challenge: Well, it's clear people didn't like the different skin tones. Live and learn ...

The 3 faces of Eve...errr Jeffrey!! Great and very creative idea!! I am suprised this didn't score higher. Fun shot and...yeah, you should have went to work half shaven!! LOL. Great stuff!!!
Ahhhh - you should have gone to work that way!!!!
You missed out on some of the oddest looks you will ever get.
(trust me - I know - I get them all the time and I'm clean shaven too)
Wow, you're becoming quite the magician. Soon you'll be giving Scalvert a run for his money. I like the bearded guy best -- it highlights his marvelous eyes.
Nice play on composition. For my tastes with this type of scene I would prefer for evenness in colour tones, but as here still different tones for each. Good shot.
This is quirky but I kinda like it. I wish the tones of the faces on the left and right were the same. The one on the left is red, the one on the right more golden. Ok, I guess it works since you're going from one to the other. Talking out loud here. ;`D
is this a single image. i wonder because the lighting seems different for each view. anyway it does show transition but just not real appealing. looks like you had fun with it though.
