I've been looking at a lot of eye close-ups in challenges lately, and this is one of the best. An interesting composition; the skin is shiny enough that I don't feel like I am staring into every pore; and your trick with the iris works quite well. even those little eye-veins look pretty.

The Crush

I enjoy the performances given by both of you, and the lighting is dramatic yet conveys the facial expressions perfectly. My suggestion would be to work out the scenario further. Right now, he just looks ridiculously interested in the book she's reading (I don't get the sense of either person having a crush on the other). I think you should suggest more of a story. Perhaps let us know what book you are reading, or where you are sitting. Yes, I think a sense of setting would help this tremendously. Context is vital for humor.

I realize that there is a certain amount of technical prowess required to have so much stuff in focus, but for a shot like this it's pretty much expected, so it doesn't have a lot of wow factor. I'm left with a lovely view that is partially blocked by a big head. This does give me a little to think about, since me and the head are doing the same thing (looking at a vista), so I get a little bit of this strange sense of looking at myself. And since he's in a ski outfit looking at snow, it sort of makes me feel like I'm being put into an adventure, which is a nice feeling. But this little tingle doesn't last long, and then I'm left with a big head blocking my view. Even though there's a little bit of conceptual interest, as I mentioned, it's not enough to overcome the lack of visual interest. The head itself is not much to look at, and even though it fits into the composition, it does not dynamically interact with the composition. All that being said, this photo would be very good for a vacation brochure, because of that sense of adventure I mentioned before.

Is this an attempt at a Seurat look? I admire the experimentation, but the composition isn't that interesting. 6
