Guess I'm not going to bother checking to SEE if I have any images to enter in this contest-LOL! I'll bet he was more than happy when you were done trying to blind him, but what a spectacular photo of Ben's eye, the detailing is incredible, and I love the various colors. My best wishes to you in this contest!

Wow! Super-duper effort,indeed! This photograph tells a story beyond just the scenery. The details of the pupil, the crisp details , and the mood all combine to create something truly evocative. A perfect example of photography as art! Bravo, here goes my SIX for you. Good luck!

Thank you VERY much Brian for your great review and the six stars!
No, Ben didn't enjoy it very much, but he was as good as gold and chuffed to bits with the final result - I've promised him I'll get a large version printed for his wall, that kept him happy! Lol

Wow! Fantastic results you finally achieved after several tries! Poor Ben! Ouch!
I especially admire the fact that the Iris looks like a sunflower! There was no editing to achieve that?

Ha ha no he didn't enjoy it very much, but was thrilled with the final outcome.
The was a LOT of cloning and spot healing brush as the lights had created too many highlights.
Thank you SO much for your wonderful review and high rating.

A very creative submission to the contest. A great shot of the eye showing the myriads of colors that actually makeup of the iris of the eye.

A pretty unique entry. I like the clarity of the details inside the pupil of this eye. The diversity of prominent colors, shapes, and patterns are likewise amazing. Great close up shot, Charlotte. Wishing you the best in this contest.

The patterns in the eye are amazing aren't they, I'd never really looked that closely before.

Off the charts "WOW!" You took an extraordinary image of the eye Charlotte! I have never seen such definition. Ben may hve gone blind from the lighting but the combo of light and sharpness created an incredible view of the eye! I soooo wish I had 6 stars to give! You mote than deserve it. This registers as a 20 in my eyes! I thought I had a good entry for the contest but you far exceeded my entry! Definitely think you're a shoe-in for the close-up win! :o) Nancy

Hi Nancy, thank you so much for your really wonderful review and the virtual six stars - just as good! :)
Ha ha Ben didn't enjoy it much, but he was very pleased with the final result - I said I'd get it blown up and printed for his wall.
