I like the effect you achieved here with the b/w conversion. I'm really liking the abstract feel of the shot. Captured very nicely.

PostLuminous Award Nominee!
To quote a Seinfeld episode, The Kramer Painting--"He is a loathe-some, offensive brute, yet I cannot look away..."

Creepy, disorienting, and expertly done! I want to look away, but I cannot!

Looks very abstract. Would have liked to see if the color version gave it more impact.

Odd and abstract, but interesting as well.

Wow! Talk about Twilight Zone!!! The negative effect makes this kinda creepy, and I kinda like that. Excellent abstract execution of the challenge. One of my faves.

I can't stop staring at this image. My first thought was that this can't be legal in Basic, but I couldn't figure out how you would have done both eyes so well in Advanced either.

I can only hope you post how this was done after the challenge is over. I keep thinking "redeye", but my only guess is it has something to do with colors and how they convert to black and white in something like Channel Mixer.
