Hey everyone! I just wanted to post another one of my self portraits. I know before i was going for a super overly-contrasted dramatic look. This time I added the dramatic lighting in-camera, then just made my skin look better and brought brought some color into the picture. I didn't take all the pores away as I did in some of my other work. Also sharpened the eyes, eyebrows, mouth, and facial hair. Obviously removed blemishes. :)

Anyways, here is the original:

And here is my edit:

Please tell me what you all think! I'd love some tips or to know if I did something wrong!
