I don't expect this to do well in the challenge. It's not as clear as I would have liked. The combined effort of holding a maglite and holding my breath was a little difficult especially towards the end of the shoot, of course that is all practise for my next hobby—free diving.

anyone who voted this a 5 or less obviously didnt take the time to truly LOOK at this photo. I am shocked that it didn't at least place in the top 50.

Interesting and creative idea for this challenge. Color is OK and clarity of the open eyes is good. Generally decent photo quality.

You will be rewarded by viewers for a creative idea but to what degree is to be seen.

On the technical side there is a bright patch of light on the upper right side that will act as a distraction to the average viewer. It probably should be removed. Viewers will be curious to know what the jagged edge around the eyes is and why it was set up that way but the image itself does not provide an answer.

You might score higher if the eyes occupied a physically larger area of the frame.
