Keep Your Eye On The Ball
This shot was taken by my daughter (rumblemumbles) who I found sitting
on the floor in our hallway to reduce reflections, taking shots of her
own eyes.
If you look carefully, you can see her arms reflected in the iris
holding the camera.
To me it just looks like a meteorite racing through space with a trail of streaks.
I had not look so closely at an eyeball before, and I thought she did a great job.

This is wonderful. If you crop just the pupil and blue iris you would be hard pressed to know it was an eye.
There is a group called For Your Eyes Only who would lve you to post this.

I had cropped it from the original already, but ask and ye shall receive.

Fantastic shot, rumblemumbles. The iris is gorgeous -- and looks almost like a wooly fibre. Interesting to see that although the eyes are blue, it looks like there is a very thin brown ring around the pupil. I must try this myself! Hope it doesn't hurt!

That is some seriously intense detail Jim.... reminds me of some of Rankins work:

Once the page has loaded scroll right about 1third... much more than that and it gets bit rude.
