So I need a new headshot for a conference I’m speaking at in June and I’m short on time so I fooled around with my camera last night (ooh-err, missus) and narrowed it down to three options…

@pcxt Sadly, loses its effect when cropped square (as the photos are on the site); otherwise I was very tempted to
@aral sure I get it
Maybe you can add black stripes above and below

I like the third one due to the serious look.

@witix Well, there will be lots of suits in the room so maybe scaring them a little isn’t a bad idea
I think the first is my favourite too.
@aral@mastodon.ar.al @witix@mk.absturztau.be the last one looks too intense to me, but the first one seems to have a good mix of vibes and raw aura

@aral First. Third needs a CW.

Also, because I love you, here’s me doing my best Zoolander impression.
@aral this is the one

Which should I go with?

@aral I think you should go with Blue Steel.

@aral DAMN, you're handsome!!!
I voted for the first, however: your pfp is even better. -
@rgarner Thanks, Russell
PS. Most of the emotion in the photos is the pain of leaning over my desk to get close enough to the camera I usually use for streaming (a6400) for the f1.4 lens to do it’s magic (shh, don’t tell anyone).
PPS. Do you know I didn’t even realise I wasn’t wearing my specs in the third one until you just told me? Our brains, what’re they like, eh?

@aral Did you get your chips back from that Seagull?
@beaufils Nope, bastard just shat on my head and flew away.

OK, there’s also this, which is probably the only one I took that isn’t technically an extreme close-up but a close-up.
Thoughts?
Currently split between the first one and this.

@aral that's an extreme close-up, my friend. for it not to be, your neck (and ideally your shoulders) should be in frame and in the same layer as your face.

@aral You look most charismatic in the first one. A sizeable majority seem to agree!

@aral considering a very technically traditional portrait framing, of course. your aesthetic proposition with these pics is obviously not traditional, so maybe what I said is worth zilch, lol. sorry.
