Self Portrait Project Day 6 (Preempting Day 5)

Hi, and welcome back to my Self Portrait Project.

I decided to preempt Day 5 which needs a bit more work in compositing, and show today's session first.

If I had to choose a title for this, it would simply be called "Depression."  

I chose to crop the image on the left above my lips because when I am struggling in the darkness, I feel like I have no voice. 

I used a higher camera angle for the image on the right to show that I feel beaten down in this emotional state.

The dark black and white images relate to how I feel inside.

No make-up.

No retouching.

Just my bare skin and emotion.
