I would have titled this "Resistance is Futile" because you look like a Star Trekkian like Borg.

Very clever and I like it, but what's it say about you as an individual? I don't get a sense of who or what you are from the image.

Feininger

I like the shot; it reminds me of the famous image by Andreas Feininger, titled "the photojournalist", made in 1955, exactly 50 years ago.

pretty cool self portrait; the lack of hair parallels the round lenses and viewfinder; I can relate to this since I also own a Contax G and don't own too much hair any longer ;-))
