This is a great closeup. I find myself staring right back at her. Magnificent detail. I just wish that upper eyelid was more in focus but I know that is difficult.
The eye is captured great and the hairy structur of the iris is awesome. Light could have been better, i.e. softer without the strong reflections. Softness fits better to the song too.
Did you use one of those Nikon macro cool-lights for this?
I'm not keen on the angle, the eye-lid distorts the view, the detail is good, but the light makes it look unnatural.
It's a shame the eyelashes are out of focus - although not knowing your camera it's difficult to judge how hard this was for you. The detail in the brown of the eye is very good although the ring flash (guessing) is a little distracting. It's a very good attempt though
this kinda scared me when it first loaded up. cyclopean. i'm gonna take a picture of it looking at me from my laptop's screen, it's super spooky. weird spin on van morrison, i dunno.... but i'm only grading you on the freaky-deaky image, not the song, so strong nine.
I love the lights in the eye. How did you do that. I wish the upper lid had been in focus as good as the rest. The reflections of the lashes in the eyeball on the right side are awesome. The details of the eye are aaaaaa. 10, 10, 10. PTL
There is an awful lot of reflection on the eyeball and the eyelashes are not in focus. Nice idea but maybe your camera has trouble with depth and focus when the subject is that close.
My best friend had big brown eyes.....we used to put the top down and drive around singing that song. Love it. Great memory for me. Love your shot, the lights are great along with the focus.
