Description I'm such a whoaaaar.

I am proud of this photo, nothing more to say.

Forgive me! I'm so sorry, this might get boring for you.
But it's just so much fun. This photo actually has no idea or concept behind it, but I was playing with lighting, expressions and editings and I like how this turned out, execution-wise.
I always feel like a stupid attention-whore when I post pointless self-portraits, that's why I exaggerate right now.

As always, hope you don't mind. I feel like I have this 2,500 people around me who expect straight-A work for me whenever I post something.



But I promise you - today I imported some photos on my computer and they are even a liiiittle special, I am also having a shooting with a french girl tomorrow ... stay tuned.


Update: Sorry, I am so silly. I just don't want to receive comments like "This is so unspecial, where did your story-telling photos go?" because they really hurt me. (yes, I've already received some of this kind)
That's why I am excusing and that shit, so ... I am a mess.

Any dev that gets 225 favs and 158 comments has to be special, and this one is. The eyes are hypnotic but do suggest looking at other areas of the face such as the lips, which could have been the prime focus for a shot like this. Ignore the haters. If I was as beautiful, I would be posting tons.

Might be just a self-shot but I still find this intense.

I blame your eyes and your lips. They are gorgeous...

Your eyes remind me of the ones described in books. The ones that special character has that make you think 'There's no way such eyes exist'.

The way you part your lips makes me think you want to say something. Maybe you will swear at me or merely ask me to pass something. Ambiguous...

this is a huge compliment to me, thank you. I mean, again, this comparison with a book-character ... aaah. that is really sweet of you to say.

I don't think you should listen to people that give you comments like that, because I think this photo is captivating.
There is something about you that is just so beautiful. I think it's your emotion; you always have such an expression on your face.

you should be proud of this picture, and yerself
you're a cute young and and have such beautiful eyes.

But all pictures tell a story, there's a great deal of sadness and depression in that face, and perhaps more then a little tired.... at least that's what it looks liked here.
