Thank you to Nathan for posing. I tried something different than my usual style on this picture and really pushed the contrast and the sharpening as much as I dared.

Too vague a connection with the challenge topic - blue eyes (not even the main focus of the image) and a blue-ish background are too tenuous. Good off-centre composition though.

More like a stolen look :-) Good light, I like it when you can almost see something in the dark.
