Compound Eyes

Gee, thanks for providing my dream world with this image.
Gloriously overwhelming. The smallest creatures do not diminish in complexity or creativity. This would make a great poster. But not in my home.

Sees more than we do. Colors blend well, and the centered composition is handily balanced by the background. Can't meet this gaze, in all honesty, more that a few seconds.

Nicely conveys the mood I'm seeing in her, yet who knows? With just a modest amount of her eyes visible, the overall import of this image is deftly handled. Black and white works well here. Good composition.

I see one of you and you see some thousands of me. Makes a human blush. Beautifully realized for this challenge. What a marvelous little brain this fly must have.

Yup - they really are orange!

I see stardom in a heavy metal band. "O sprey do you see?" Pumped up to destroy a stadium near you!
Splendid detail in the feathers. So neat to see the lamination of the beak. The delicacy of the irises.

Ellis

Comment:
Strong, beautiful, engaging, compelling, utterly guileless. It's magic to see that she will have her story, her path and, hopefully, her wisdom. Can't be more present than she is. Is Ellis a girl, seeing that it's usually a boy's name? Not important.
Wonderful depth of focus. Anything other than black and white might dilute the mood.
Personal favorite of the challenge.

So this is the floating world? See that monk wandering a byway? These are the textures of serenity.
One of three personal co-favorites.
