Default Old & New Injuries

A man's face is his autobiography, what is the face of a canon ball?
Basically I want to show my current state me mood, after going throu multiple
failures in both career and elsewhere.
How do I improve this picture?

Can't really say anything about the picture without being in your skin, but I wish you all the best.

If it helps you, if it weren't for a "failure" in my life, I wouldn't have taken a job that turned to be out a very good move career- and job satisfaction-wise, and I wouldn't have met my wife either. Now it looks like a good thing, but let me tell you, back then I was absolutely shattered.

when the going gets tough, the tough gets going.
i had been through you state. call me should you need a pair of listerning ears.

now for the comment on photo.

sorry, cant see where is the injuries, let alone new & old.

beside the injuries, have you notice that you have taken a "ball", ie no corner? may be subconciously, you want to express "dont drill bull horn's edge". not sure how to express it in english, can someone pls help? thanks.

erm, i believe its something like "trying too hard"?

anyway, sorry man, this pic not really working for me too. I can see what u mean by old (the darker black holes) and new (the center one) injuries, but its not really having any impact on me though.

Maybe u can try doing a close up of just the "old & new" scars on the fruit, perhaps it might give a different effect.. I would say for this shot u are trying a bit too hard on the abstract part..

slighlty more dof to bring the stem into focus and correct the slanted horizon
bg looks over exposed.

I do not see the intended story as well, use of selective lighting would do the trick.
