She is not wearing a contact lens like some of you thought. This is the reflection of a lamp that had some stars on it. That was the only lighting I used.

Thanks for all your good comments :)

Beautiful work.

Very nice focus and clarity. I love the color as well. I have not decided if I like the star or not. I think I do cause that makes it a bit more than "just another eye shot". It makes it unique. The lighting is ok, I am curious to see what this would have looked like with full lighting and no shadow. Good luck in the challenge.

Striking. I guess that\'s a contact lens. It\'s pretty cool. I love the colours in her iris. The photo doesn\'t grab me as a whole, but it\'s very good.

Very nicely done! Great capture of the reflection and super detail and colors in the rest of the photo!

The lighting is great and I really love different colors used to create and capture the true feel of this picture...10

Very pretty. Good shot, clean, clear, wonderful focus and color. Like this.

OMG! Is this ever a beautiful eye. The color and detail is so wild. Am I imagining or is that a star on the left side of the color. You can't get any better than this. I stand in awe. 10, 10, 10. OMG! PTL

I love the star shaped highlight. Gteat exposure and focus, just too centered for my tastes,
12/23/2002 08:14:19 AM
That's a really pretty eye, and a well done photograph. The only thing I would hcange is the starlight. if you backed up the actual light further from the cutout of the star I don't think you'd have the round light showing inside the star. Great idea though, and done really well, congrats :)

Whoa!
The detail in the eye is fantastic. The star is cool, but in this case I think it's an unecessary distraction.
Still a great shot, would love to see this full at size. Well done.

Nice atmosphere, excellent lighting.

Great colors in the eye. Would liked a bit less harsh light in the upper left corner.
