A 'straight into the lens' image would have cracked the lens and your monitors ;)

It's an original self portrait. I like it much better than what I usually see (and do :p)

Colour blind from Tokyo, Japan
It's got "music cover" written all over it. I'd love to see a photo that could crack my screen...it'd be worth it I reckon. Fantastic self portrait. I'm going to try and do one.

Not bad as such portraits go. You look rather comtemplative or mb your just fiddling with your camera! Nice shot.
