pretty flat duotone - the exposed parts wash out. I've seen that with a few in this challenge, and it seems to me to be the ones that use channel mixer to convert to greyscale. that method usually overdoes the red, so it doesn't give much contrast in the lighter parts. Either way, a little more contrast and this improves a ton in my eyes. good concept, and clean hue shift in the eyes.

this almost gives me a Phantom of the Opera feel, with the white mask on the face appearance. I do like this pic but I think that the light is just a touch too much. It definitely draws you to the eye, but a little softer or less wattage maybe?

Rather scary image! It's not just the green eyes (which were done well) but the whole mood of the piece. Yikes! Well done, but not something I'd want to look at very often, sorry!

I like the green eyes contrasting with teh dark shadows/contrast and the black and white. Kind of a Tom Green expression adds a bit of interest to the shot as well. Good luck!

Not really crazy for the hazy look. The affect of the eye color and lighting is good.

Grim and spooky but I guess that is what was intended. The green eye is a neat touch, as is the soft focus.

I'm sorry...I don't like the green, don't like the lighting, and don't like the angle of the shot. At this angle, the nose is what dominates when I look at it - even with the green eye.
