My tie ain't crooked!!

Hmmm... Personally I think it needs some cropping and a little color correcting. How about this...

I thought you were younger

I think you did pretty good! But I agree with my friend HF, I like his version better! I actually like the tie left that way. It gives it a more natural and less staged effect! All in all great job!

Your self portrait. Strangely enough, it looks just like you. Yup, good job, and yes, the cropped version by Fish looks better. And yes, your tie IS askew.

What's a Tie???

haha. Great start. Did you edit it at all? Focus seemed a tad soft, and I'm guessing Horoscope Fish added a bit contrast.

Yeah, was edited. I used a preset called Faded Film which gives it more of a softer look in Lightroom.

Hi, I really like the original - looks like a subtle vintage look IMO! adds a kind of relaxing and friendly mood.

I hope this doesn't annoy you but I had a little fiddle, crop, contrast, colours and airbrush (was bored & need to practice) this was my result. - I'm not saying I like what i've done but it does look alot different to the original. I'm Not a fan of airbrushing, but some people are.
