Great shot. I know how hard it is to capture a sharp reflection in someone's eye;)
Thankx for sharing.

Very nice capture, with warm colors and an excellent reflection.

TFS,
David

Hi Jure,
Great photo. The reflex on the eye is amazing, is a window isn't it? The coulours are very good, I like the strong and saturated tones.

Aida

Excellent idea and very very good detail.
The POV and DOF is fantastic.
Congratulation. Bravo.

Absolutely gorgeous Jure! This photo is so evocative, passionate, and powerful. There are tons of macro eye shots on this website but this one is really stunning. The really sharp focus on the left-hand third of the shot, with those eyelashes and part of the eye just popping out. Then you have those nice strong contrasts and super rich tones that really makes the shot unique and dynamic. Really wonderful point of view from slightly below the eye, and at a side angle to show the eye gazing just slightly downwards. Is the owner of this eye the one in love? The gaze seems to indicate so ;) Excellent composition and balance with the line of the eye lid curving at a slight angle across the shot, wonderful framing of the eye and I like how it's just slightly cropped at the right edge and darker there so that there's balance and so that the out-of-focus part is not distracting but rather lets the left side just pop out. That reflection in the eye is amazing and I love how you can see warm strong daylighting in it. Really beautiful work, TFS!

Hi Jure! Very lovely macro again. I love the POV and the tone. Not a shocking but melancholic eye this time. I like it.
TFS,
Freddie :)

Beautiful macro, Jure. I like it a lot. Deep and it makes you feel well, thou I can't explain why.
Thanks,
Tibi

Hello Jure,

Great job!!
