So, today my jacket got stolen or lost in my faculty.
Because there has been a steady fall of rain last days, the sandy part of the way was pretty muddy, its just ~200 meter unpaved.

Decided it was time for some self portraits.
These are only edited on colors and sharpness in lightroom.

Please comment on everything from dof/focus to after editing, no need to comment on my modelling skills.

The DoF is just fine, the eyes are in focus and that's what you want ideally. The rest can be artist's interpretation. What i can critique on is your composition and framing/crop.

The first image on the left, the diagonal line coming out of his forehead is distracting, so is the line right above your left sholder.

As for the 2nd and third image, if you're going to crop off the ears, go in tighter, it just looks somewhat awkward to me.

the second two are actually not crops, so i cant add the ears.
Thank you for the critiques, i do agree with the background on the first, i dont have a backdrop, as this was an unplanned photoshoot. I dont have a backdrop at all.

I don't like the background, so I prefer the cropped images.
