 Blacked out background. Played with eyes to enhance colour. Adjusted skin tone. Dodged on whites. Sharpened slightly and saved.
Had a bit of a laugh doing this one. Trying to organise 5 females of various ages took a lot longer then it should have. My wife had to take over to get them organised. All in good fun.

I like the idea in this one. Could have made it so much better by darken it a little, skip the strange colors of their eyes and maby give them more interesting positions IMHO...

Gorgeous reference to one of the most valuable lessons men should learn.

I like the idea, but the eyes are too obviously processed, especially the girl on the right...the white is not blended quite enought and it looks like you maybe had to clone out something right under her nose. Would be an excellent shot if the PP was tweaked just a touch more...4

Clever idea, which has been excuted really well.....

Hmmmm... not sure you had any feathering around your selection. Did you try to selectively darken the background or did you drop another one in? And what on earth did you do to the whites of their eyes! LOL! I'm going to assume that this is all intentional for the sake of humour :D:D

The whites of their eyes are overprocessed. It might have turned out better if you had used the dodge tool instead.

Cool color contrast with the eyes! The one half-closed eye on the bottom is a bit distracting, only because all the others are open so wide.

looks like 9.5 eyes

too fake looking

Great concept but I feel closer placement, with less negative space, would have made this even better.8.
