Day 313

I was thinking about this portrait all day, wondering just how I would portray myself. I knew I wanted something with lightning or electricity, but wasn't totally sure how to picture it.

Would it be serious?

Should I make myself look dangerous?

Would it work with or without an environment or setting?

Ultimately, here's where I took the idea. I really like the texture of the background, but it's not so overpowering that it takes away from my image. And no, I decided to go with a bit more playful than creepy or scary.

On the other hand, I am shooting lightning bolts from my fingers, so I suppose there's just a hint of danger there!
