My first attempt at a wacky self portrait! What ya reckon?

I created this image in Photoshop by layering two images on top of each other. The first image/layer was taken of me lookin straight on into my camera. The second image/layer in the same position but with my forearm placed across my eyes. I then erased the eye area on the second layer, allowing the eyes to.come through from the bottom layer. I neatened it up with various blending tools then merged layers together. I then created the high key action by adjusting the curves and a few fill layers to.bring out my eyes. I chose to do this self portrait as it represents me. I'm a quite secretive person who doesn't trust easily (arm protecting my face) but am always keeping a watchful eye out for the opportunity :D
