Took just 5 shots of myself for a last-minute idea. Delighted to have been in frame and in focus. Desaturated and lightened skin and wall, burned the gem a bit, added border.

The dark clothing and necklace make this dnmc to me... "Take a photo in which the background is white and the subject is predominately a lighter color." I suppose that the skin is technically a predominately lighter color, but I think the darkness of the other colors take away from the idea of the challenge.
