My eyes!
Copper/Gold/Green glitter eye makeup/ peacock feather
Mascara - a neccesity for these lashes
Then I played with saturation and some sharpening.

The funniest thing about this is that the family thinks this is a scary picture. Afraid to hear what they think of me WITHOUT makeupt...

I'm with your family! When I saw the thumb in your profile I thought "wow, that's creepy." Not so scary at full size, though just as interesting.

Now this is just awesome and a great close up of your wonderful eye.
I love this composition with the colorful peacock feather against your colored eye.
Wonderful textures and rich colors. Tops in my book.....

Ok, those that scored 1's, 2's and 3's here are out of their minds! Just plain TROLLS! Such a shame that people feel the need to destroy other's scores.

Good idea, execution, composition, and focus on the eye. For this challenge, you might consider backing out the feather a little to the right to show a little more of the nice brown iris.

Love the use of colors with the brown, the brown in the feather really caught my attention. Nice setup and work.

A fine capture a little clean up of the lint or dirt on the iris would have made this exceptional for me.

This is a really nice colorful image, but I don't see brown as the dominant color.

Ok, this is pretty, but not sure that this belongs in this particular challenge. I mean, the focus of the picture should be "Brown" and with all of the bright colors, my eye definitely does not go to anything brown. The whole point of this challenege was to make brown the main focus, since it is such a non-descript color. Instead, this picture takes you away from the brown. Nice picture, just not for this contest

Now, here's finally a shot that has a really artsy feel to it and yet, completely conveys the idea of brown. Nicely complimented by the way with the greens and the dark blues that really bring out the browns. Love the eye shot and makeup! Nicely done! This is probably my fave in this whole challenge!

A bit over sharpened, glare from lights in distracting. Composition is good.

This would be excellent with a bit better focus on the feather!
