2.21 - "Needs Work" 

Set-up Description:
This was a studio setup, self-portrait… Sitting on a stool with remote trigger under the big toe of my right foot – Nikon D810 with an old F-mount lens attached (just can’t remember which lens). Lighting was quite basic really involving a main key light with a background fill light bounced off a white background drop cloth.
Processing:
Color to B&W conversion with other minor shadow recovery & contrast tweaks included, no major corrections or adjustments made. The exposure set to f 6.3 @ 1/60th, with an ISO of 125 pretty much produced the overall desired effect.

This looks. Really like the expression. I'm not sure what this community does when rating because this is a solid image. and yet it is rate a 2? I don't understand. Only thing I would do is darken that hand.
