 I didn't shoot this image specifically for this challenge. That said, I'm fairly certain it will land firmly in the 5's as usual.

I was taking some pictures of my car before sunrise near a highway construction site downtown, and decided it was a good opportunity to get a self portrait for my portrait a week project. So yeah, thats me.

Converted from raw, crop, curves layer, sharpened, resized, save for web. That's about it.

If it were just the photographer and the horizon it would have been great. The rest adds nothing.

The lighting is superb in my opinion. The exposure is great too. Very nice.

your photographer doesn't seem to be in focus...(at least not sharply) the shadows are distracting...kind of like pick one thing to photography...not all 3

The exposure is spot on, cutting off the feet doesn't help.

Here, the tilted horizon doesn't really seem to add anything, it's so slight, it just looks a bit crooked. Nice photo, though.

Nice Lighting job, but would be better if it were tilted more IMO
