I decided to try something with eyes, which I am sure will be seen a million times, but hopefully not like this. a simple straight forward shot. Yes, a cheeky remake of my profile photo. That's all I had time to do, cause of working all the time.

Critique Club:

Meeting the Challenge: Very well done. It might well have been named eyes of rage, and seemed to be taken that way by some of the commenters.

Composition: I like the way you cropped this photo in a non-traditional format which intensified your subject. The drawing on the left eye (as I view it) also helps keep it from being boring by being too symmetrical. B/W makes the image even more dramatic. I liked the veins in the eyes showing to add to the intensity of the feeling.

Technical Quality: Good, although I would have liked to have seen more dof, as the focus is pretty intense on the nose bridge and softens up a lot at the eyes. The white specks are a little distracting in the forehead to me and the dark specks below the eyes, also.

Creativity: Excellent on this respect, very original idea, really liked it.

Overall, I think this photo was a little under-scored in the challenge, but it seems a lot of really nice photos end up below 5.5 lately. I would have at least given it a six, and without the specks and a little more focus likely at least an 8.

Hope this was helpful, let me know if you have any questions. Kandice

I don't know about anger but sure scares the hell out of me. Had a crazy aunt with the same eyebrows, This was the best of the eye shots.

Good composition. Better focus on the etes and brighter highlights in the eye.

would have been better if the model used Visine or something, the bloodshot eyes are distracting but the composition is nicely done.

The complexion is a little flat. Kind of a scary photo. But a creative idea.
