The eye speaks even when we don't. And, God knows the soul even when we don't speak.

I discovered that at 1/3 sec and F10 with an extension tube, there is a compromise between capturing iris detail and the words reflecting off the cornea. Especially when factoring in subject movement! Cloning used to remove small scar on the pupil.

I find the reflection distracting and the color too red. I do like the placement of the pupil in the frame.

Eyes seems to be a very popular subject in this challenge, but this take is definetely interesting and out of the box.

Nice idea, looks OOF or otherwise blurry though, maybe a bit of camera shake going on?

Seems a bit busy. I like the focus on the reflected text but I'm torn around how it blurs the eye itself.
