Self portrait

Hi guys... Got my new tripod yesterday from James for xmas i'm one spoilt girlie!! So i been playing about with self portraits today... I'm also getting some studio lighting kits for xmas too and can't wait to get them as they'll improve the lighting so much!!

1. First picture is a close up of my eyes (obviously) I've always had the brown mark in my left eye, my sister has it in the same spot in her right eye but not as well developed as mine is.


2. I'm not too keen on this one... the light is over exposed on my nose and makes it look broken


3. This is a better one i think.

You know I am going to have to look next time I see you now

Anyway I think it is different but in a nice way Amano has a similar bit in his eye (not that I am comparing you to a dog ) Though his are the opposite way round, brown eyes with a bit of blue marble.
