This is a REALLY close up view - very neat to see the intricacies of the eye. I do think that it may suffer from being somewhat out of focus (although this may have been a conscious artistic choice). But it's a very cool shot. The highlights are a little blown out, but I love the web of textures and colors. |

Amazing color, the only thing I would have changed is maybe more detail. |

not sure if I like the effect applied here or not - but I feel you did a great job at acheiving your goal and the challenge |

I think this is an eyeball iris macro... but I could be wrong. It has an other-worldly appearance. It appears to be cropped heavily from the original, and when that happens, along with resizing, you lose a lot of quality and resolution. The centering of the subject makes for a rather flat image; perhaps choosing a composition where the pupil is in the top left or top right corner, with the colors of the iris coming out from it in diagonals would make it a bit more dynamic. The lights reflected in the pupil are distracting, which pulls the attention away from the rest of the image. I think you were on the right track with the idea, but the lack of technical and creative proficiency in the idea's execution will probably have you falling short of a score you might hope to achieve. It is not something most voters would hang on their walls. I wish you luck in future challenges...don't give up!! :) |

Whew! Too close for me. Feel like I'm entering Mordor! On the serious side, I'm trying to figure out if I'm looking at something modified using Photoshop "art" filters - the either natural or induced "noise" detracts from the image, IMHO. |

by getting so close you lost some of the sharpness. |

Certainly meets the challenge. I'm not sure this will do well though, it's not the most pleasing looking eye, and it also looks like you blew up a photo bigger than its original resolution to get this close. |

Looks like you've used an "artistic" filter. Nice idea, but I would have prefered to see it without the filter. |

Not sure what you have done in post processing, feels like a paint filter has been applied. Not sure I like the effect |

Interesting shot...what kind of effects filter did you use on it? The eye looks like it's been reinterpreted as a painting. Groovy. |
