The meaning of the word is kind of sad, but I just love that funny sound. Gork. Similar to gawk. It fits perfectly. :)

He's watching me wherever I go; those eyes, they just keep watching. Stop it, leave me alone!!! Seriously, though, well conceived and executed, I like the final image.

Excellent and abstract. I would try shooting a few at small aperture and stronger flash to see if I could get the eyes to "star". The OOF blur would be difficult though at smaller aperture. Maybe if you use a star filter, or piece of brass screen over the lens it would would get the effect.

Since the eyes were out of focus it captured the bokeh circles it generated.


that is utterly amazing!! just by not focusing you get that effect? wow, I have to go think about that one for a bit...thanks for the feedback.

Ooooh. Spooky. Gives new meaning to phrase "lamplight eyes."

Now see, I find it very strange to be saying that I like this freaky image better than the other freaky image! ;) I think the eyes on this one do it for me.

Is this why black cats get such a bad rap...hmmm? :D

Both are cool shots but I think the comp on the other stands out much stronger. I like the extra detail in the alternate.

As mentioned, a great Hallowe'en shot, though I'd probably shift the color of the eyes to a more pronounced orangy-red (though it should be noted that those are colors I don't see well!).
