or iris by live. excellent detail, i can never seem to recreate these great eye macros

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.

wow, looks like you had a lens light, too. nice shot.

Great detail. reflections a little distracting but probaly unavoidable still an easy 9

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.

THE BOTTOM EYELASHES DISTRACT BIG TIME

Fantastic !!!!
01/07/2003 04:37:16 PM
haven't i seen this before?
01/07/2003 03:17:07 PM
Great idea and I sure love the detail in eye, but the reflections from the macro light is sure distracting.6.

Take my comments for what they are worth for I am just a novice with a new camera. Dodo

A little weird. I'm trying to figure out what's reflecting in that eye.
01/07/2003 11:59:01 AM
Is that a homegrown LED ring light?
01/07/2003 12:52:07 AM
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

great detail.. the brown striations are marvelous! was there not a way to eliminate the white light reflection?
01/06/2003 10:19:06 PM
I've never seen an iris look quite like that ... Nice picture. The top eyelid does distract a little, but good overall.
01/06/2003 09:41:20 PM
Damn! That has gotta be the best eye image I have seen!...Excellent job!
01/06/2003 07:23:57 PM
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.
01/06/2003 12:12:18 PM
Awesome closeup, but what is up with the multiple catch lights.How many lights did you use.?
01/06/2003 09:48:39 AM
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
01/06/2003 07:22:07 AM
Great image, stood out from rest, great highlights
01/06/2003 04:54:37 AM
Nice picture!
01/06/2003 03:42:22 AM
That's hella clear focus on the iris, but I wish the eye was open more and all that fuzzy upper lid wasn't there.
01/06/2003 01:44:17 AM
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.
01/06/2003 01:35:21 AM
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.
