We were asked this week to do homework of a selfie with a difference.

WOW - don't know you do that, brilliant. Are you putting it into the creative competition? You should do, this is great.

That's excellent, well done.

I think a portrait format would suit it better than landscape. Too much wasted space at the sides.

The eye looks over whitened.

I really love this! It would be good to see it in portrait format as Paul suggests - always worth trying these things! Are you going to share the Technique - pleeease?

Thank you for looking and for commenting also.
Any input is gratefully received.

Hi, I agree about the portrait aspect.
The problem I have with 'creative' photos is that they don't resemble the reality they are from. Don't get me wrong, this is a great start, but if you 'unpeel' the photo, ie, squeeze it back together, then you can see it isn't like orange peel, as it is actually two ribbons and one has been removed. There is no right eye in the photo for instance.

As Tracey has said, judges will love it, but I would have liked to actually see it as a 'peel'.
A really good first effort, I'm not knocking effort, I would have liked a bit of believability.
If they were side by side (if you get what I mean, and the other 'ribbon' was on the right, I'd like it a lot more.
I'm not commenting on the photo itself, as I don't think you asked for that.
