 My first macro shot. We were sitting trying to think of a picture for the surreal challenge and we came up with this idea. I made a powerpoint presentation with the word WIN! written on it. Then Tracy held the laptop close to her face while I snapped a macro shot. I regret that the N! did not come out that well, however I think you can make out what it says. We will see.

Nicely done. The reflected "wine bottle " is not my taste, but the eye itself is magnificent. I personally would like it if imitating a master were not required for judgement of whether or not a picture is surrealistic. I hope those who make that the criteria are familiar with the artistic version of this image. A 9.

A little too much mascara, imo... distracting.

Lol ...nice shot. The surrealism overlays the object. Good luck on this optic submission.

ton ro.

Clever idea and an interesting photo. It's an allusion to dreaming; but not very dreamlike and not very evocative of the cognitive confusion of the subconscious.

Not a fan of close ups of facial features, and this one doesn't really redeem it by at least having something other than a monitor screen reflected.

Not at all surreal, not a very good picture either.
