Description
So. Many. Self. Portraits T___TAhh so there's a few things I'm not completely happy with in this photo.
One, the skintone is completely uneven, but I suppose that happens from time to time when you have acne scarring T_T
Plus I screwed up a fair bit when using the healing brush tool ;_;
Two, I wanted the red fingerprints to be a lot more noticable, but my stupid hands couldn't hold the camera steady enough, and I ended up being impatient about it.
And three, the overall quality of this shot is not great. However this was the best of the lot, and I spent a while on the make-up, so I decided to upload it.
Anyway, I have some shoots coming up in the next week, so excited!! So you won't have to see my face all the time haha 8D

Art is not perfection. Art is subjective, emotional and flawed, not that this is. Looks like perfection to me.

Yep, you can see much more than me. There is NOTHING wrong with this amazing photo! Your eyes and lips are stunning and i like the make-up (but on the right side of the pic it looks like it was on your hair).
You've got really niece face by the way.

Forget your self-critiques. Makeup's amazing, and to my eye, the fingerprints are perfect. It's a great shot.

First of all, okay you wanted the fingertips more noticable BUT in my very own and absolutly personal oppinion the red trace of then and the hint of visibility is far more effective!
Since i don't even know what the healing brush tool is i can't say anything to that.
Last but not least, you are complaining about your skintone ? The first thing i saw in this pic were your eyes! At one point i noticed there is more on the pic then just gorgeous eyes so noticed the red fingerprints on your cheek. Then came those lovely lips that cry to be kissed!
After reading your comment i took a bit to look at your skintone . . . and i can't find anything wrong with it.
So this goes into my

I'm a bit of a perfectionist with some of my photos, I generally force myself to notice every imperfection, even when it's not so obvious to other people >__<

some of the things you're unhappy about, i don't agree are such a big deal. uneven skin tone? the skin looks beautiful! i prefer the natural beauty of things, and it bothers me immensely when people overprocess their pictures and want everything to be perfectly flawless. how many of us are actually naturally like that? i didn't even notice the skintone was uneven; that's how unnoticeable it is.
the red fingerprints are great, as they are. i feel like if they were much brighter, they'd take /too/ much of the focus. but if that's what you intended, it would have been fine most likely.
as far as the shot itself being very interesting, i'll go with you on the "overall quality". but that's just that it's a regular full on face picture. this is redeemed /immensely/ by the simply beautiful choice in colors you picked on the eyes, and for the shot overall. they all work together beautifully and make me love it.
i hope you don't mind the little bit of a critique; it's a lovely picture, and it bothered me that so many things about it bothered you!
