The Eyes Have It

brown lines,cool

i like how pearly it is... it reminds me of a shiny sea shell :D

A stranger wandered into my garden, and looked at me with evil eyes! Of course I was ready to shoot them - click - and here they are!! :)

Large on black! :)

You got this close to a cat and walked away with your eyes intact? Wanna photograph my cat? I usually do mine with the longest zoom lens I have. Chain mail helps too.

ian says:

WOW! What a response for a pair of cats eyes! Thank you everyone! I really appreciate your comments! :)

@Sai: How weird! I've never noticed that before! My bank manager would beg to differ!!!

@nixgab, Ursula Pfitzer: It's a cutout! Working with two layers, I converted one layer to b&w and then used the other to cutout the eyes to retain the colour. The levels were then tweaked - but not that much! It's the vibrant green eyes that attracted me to this shot originally! :)

So the original colour, just not tweaked much? ;)
