    If this is a self portrait, you look different to your other one :lol:

    I don't think this one offers as much to the viewer as your other self portrait/man with umbrella does either but it is still nicely done

    I much prefer this one to the other... it seems almost plausable! :)

    You have a funny obsession with knifing yourself.

    Very nice. Much more obvious than the first one. A bit less dramatic style though.

    May I ask how many shots it took you to get to this?

    Great shot! :thumb:

    The knife should stand out more, though. May I suggest some subtle, selective coloring on just the knife?

    I like this one better than the first attempt. In this one, I can clearly see how 'reflection' plays a role, and the knife stands out much better (although the knife was clear to me in the original attempt). The fact that you're the one hiding behind yourself is a nice touch, too. :)

    Great work there Yoda, I'd been pondering something very similar myself. Dammit now I have to think of something else quick by Monday. :duh:
