I love this one! I think it should be your DeviantID. I do think the expression has that element of being "concerned with the camera" like Addicted2Kairo said but I think that works really well in the context of the self-portraits as photographer pics you've done.

Thanks, honey, and I agree with you both that it would have been better had I been looking down or something. I don't want to do "Omg, I'm so moody, I can't ever make eye-contact with the camera" emo-kid photos all the time, but you're both right that in this instance, a direct look and half-smile were not the best choice. But you're a sweetie-- thanks for loving it and me!

Wait, no, I LIKE that you were aware of the camera!

I like the composition but the expression, I think, is being too concerned with the camera. I like the picture, though.

Hmm, so I look too aware of the camera? Like the interesting focus I'm going for is kind of way-layed by the more portrait style facial expression? Interesting, and thank you. I'm going to have to think about that and re-try it.

They may be grey but at least they've got soul. Cool shot. I love your lips. I love the rest of you too but your lips are cool and very expressive.

Thanks, they're groov-tastic for sure. And thanks for the compliment, too- my lips are the one body part I'm always happy with.
