I love how the eye is captured. I can almost see your reflection. :D

Don't really like the half blown out and half not aspect of the composition. Great eye, though.

Good focus on the eye, but what's it reflecting? If it's to be that clear, it should be reflecting something interesting. Not sure the OE does much.

Wow I can see the room reflected in her pupil, wonderfully clear shot.

Very sharp and clear on the eye, an intriguing image.

Not to sound like a know it all but the eye is not high key at all. High key is all highlights and mid tones with no shadow/dark ones. Anyway, I do like the focus on the eye but the blur of the nose (which happens to people all the time, including me) is very distracting.
