 Ok it has been awhile since I have enterd any challenges or even tried to get creative with my photography so everyone please be nice. This is a shot taken of my daughters eye. I took it outside in full sunlight. I thought it was very neat becuase I could see myself in her eye. It was cropped, resized, enhanced shadows and then enhanced highlights to get the very bright white. I did one little spot of cloning to take out a stray spot. I also added a soft filter around the edges for more of a dreamy effect. Last I added a champaign color filter to give the eye more of a purple tint.

i understand why the skin is so blwn out, you wanted to capture yourself in her eye, which is really cool. but, bringing the skin down in ps would have really helped

I think the super high-key exposure was intentional here, but my feeling is it was overdone. Like the reflection of the camera in the eye though
