Those who know me know I'm not prone to anger, not alot bothers me, and I let things just roll off my shoulder. Why worry? Ain't gunna do any good.... but there are those times that life can get to me; conditions frustrate me... I guess that's called life. But still, there are those times....sometimes
For those that suggested a crop, how do ya like this?
Camera: Canon EOS 20D
Exposure: 0.004 sec (1/250)
Aperture: f/4.5
Focal Length: 50 mm
Serious critiquing and comments are always welcome.
Don't take this wrong... I love my wife and my son, I love my life, my job ( well, maybe not my job, but the pay is excellent) This is strictly an image of artistic matter that I wanted to share with you. Nothing more.
The coloring definitely jumps out at you... Maybe if there were more red and less green it would be more of an impact of anger. After getting past that first initial shock with the colors, I got to look at the content. I like the comp and I like the small amount of movement around the edges of the frame.

There is allot of detail in the green (got a hard time calling it a face,) and I like those red eyes. About the only thing I would change is to crop off the right side, make it a portrait format.

Cool effect!To me it looks more introspective than anger.

Ditto on the introspection aspect...the red eyes don't imediately bring anger to mind (if that was the purpose). And, almost an agreement with MrQ...maybe not a full portrait but a bit less than the present crop.

I also think cropping would be good. While reading your post I thought I was reading about myself-I also don't let things bother me-I've always said I'm a woman with too much patience. TGIF!!!

Really neat ps job on a creative self portrait. I'm surprised that no one said anything about "Stop This Train". Loved the song!

The second does make a bigger impact, brings out a little more emotion, but I miss the forehead.

I love it - cropped or not! I'd blow it up and frame it! (Think you've inspired me to try something like that - thanks!)
