It would be out of my 'comfort zone' too, Martin. So I thought I would get the subject in before anyone else did
Ben76, I'm looking for the face to fill most of the frame, although, I could go to head and shoulders, i.e.

Faye with the K10D + kit lens @ f10 and 55mm ISO-400 - AF500FTZ flash bounced off the wall.

Hopefully the shoulders in my submission are not deemed to be excessive, but the composition seemed wrong with just a head

A nice subject for us misanthropes, you've even taken away our "get out clause" by defining the subject as a human face.
(Admins!! We need a "run away and hide" smilie! )
Getting there! Thanks to you guys

Just uploaded a shot, but think the colour's way off. My CRT monitor died last week, and my nice new TFT hasn't arrived yet, so I'm using a borrowed, cheap, TFT. Everything changes depending on where I've got my head.

Naaaaah, nothing strange here. It only means you passed the age of 20 and most likely 30. Probably 40 and even......maybe 50. Some people visit some very strange festivals

Seriously now
Galoot will have a massive job to do. A lot of good entries so far, and still two full days to go. I wish him luck.

I see a couple of members entered their own faces (you look good Emily). My entry is positively not a self portrait.

A human face, not the dog's face or a clock face
Colour or B&W are fine, no objection to Photoshop'd images, just make it jump out of the screen at me.
