Your face has faded but lingers on

There I am.

I love the depth of the eye; how a pupil can look like a vast nebula, circling in space, and contain more and more detail the longer you gaze. The eyes say what the mouth will not.

did you make your reflection monochrome, or was that just natural? it's a great detail (to me)

Nice eye photo and good job at keeping the light source from showing up as a reflection in the eye. I like the sharpness of the eyelashes too. I agree, eye has some amazing details. If you have time, here is my attempt at capturing it.

@lets take your car: Intentional monochrome; I just wanted the eye to pop.

@crag : i agree with you (on your eye post; which very nice by the way) that the macro eye picture is overdone, but doing it well or at the very least differently is a challenge. Really, I just was messing around with my extension tubes; since it had been awhile of having used them.

you have such an amazing camera....I think one day you should attempt to actually SEE your reflection with one of your infamous expressions, of course.
