this is from a recent shoot with Ais
I used layers to enable me to keep the eyes in colour after desaturating the rest of her.
I sparkled the eyes a little using NIK's Tonal Contrast tool

I had to do a major fix on part of this image and as such I have uploaded a large file to see if anyone can see what I did :)

It's pretty obvious once you see it so click on view full image and see if you can tell...

did you duplicate the eye on the right of the image and re-use it in place of the left eye?

I really like this too! Love the contrast of the eyes with the rest of the image.

Tremendous shot Will - I really like this !

As for the major fix, I think I've seen it - did you miss her lower face out ?

:- P

Absolutely gorgeous!

The iris's seem to be mirror images of one another (catchlights and specks the same) - which I have found rarely happens. So, although I do see a slight fix under the left (her right) eye I am going to go with the actual iris on this. Whatever it is - is nit picking for me and "trying to find" something. It is GORGEOUS!! Did you add the lashes after or did she put them on? I have thought of playing with lash brushes, but they require skill and blending I do not have :-)

did you clone her eyes?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

under the eye on the left there seems to be a subtle difference in the detail of the skin and lashes. did you have to do the fix there?

other than that, i have no idea. this is a great fashion shot and the detail you captured is terrific!

Simply Beautiful! Love the eyes & framing!

I really like this one. The best of all of yours so far maybe. I love the texture you can still see in the skin -- and the detail -- ohmy. . it is fabulous! Captivating indeed.

Beautiful eyes and lashes. Desaturation is appropriate and the subtle colors on the eyes look good.

Great glamour close up. The gray of the sweater really pulls in the grays of her eyes. Get a load of those eyelashes. :)

this is quite high-fashion! you didn't enter this one on DCMag POTY? One of the finalists looks like this one.

Amazing details on the eyes and the exaggerated eyelashes are fantastic. I would clean the eyebrows a bit though.

looks like some cloning & blurring going on under the left eye (her right eye)?

Too bad she didn't have longer eyelashes. :P
