Good closeup, good title. Lots of character.

The Eyes: Je ne sais quoi
by Sweetlips

Comment:
Dramatic. Very cool.

Oh, I thought I'd share what I found out about 'Je ne sais quoi' in case anyone else out there doesn't speak French:

je ne sais quoi

/zhuh nuh say KWAH/ That little something; a quality that eludes description: �The Mona Lisa�s smile has a certain je ne sais quoi.� From French, meaning �I don�t know what.�

Cool. It catches the attention. Nice contrast and sharpness.

Nice and sharp. However, it could use a little more "pop", maybe some boosting of the curves, and the pose is not as engaging as it could be. Good idea though.

Great sharpness and crisp focus. Great color. But the challenge says " Take a picture of a person's defining feature" and I don't think this is a person. If it met the challenge, it would be a 9.

Cool shot! Everything's great except that the lines in the background don't quite fit the border and it's really obvious because of the way they almost parallel the border of the image. Still, my pick for the top 5.

Ok, that's just gross.
But I suppose that's the point. Make it gross, and it will make us stop and stare. :)

One of the rare times I've seen a big frame work well here! Very nice!! Great smooth even lighting. Nice sharpness in the foreground. The best photo yet in the challenge. 9
