Great image. Perfect focus.

Perfect focus/DOF. Perfect color tones. My only (very slight) gripe is the composition - I would have cropped more off-center (and I know I'm splitting hairs at this point because it's an amazing shot!). BUT, I realize that not everyone's taste is the same. You've got a 9 from me regardless.

Masterfully done - I predict the front page for this one.

Excellent capture of details and lighting. Love the reflection too.

thats great, indeed, how did you manage that photo, and how long did it take you too shoot it ?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Impressive.

What focus! This image is great - I just think it could be improved with a different composition. The centered composition of the eye doesn't sit well with me. 8 regardless.

cool shot...where are you taking these at and with what lens??? such super clear focus...wow

My pick of the entire free study. It looks a lot like a picture taken a few challenges back. The eye and reflection are unbelievably sharp. Well done! 10

I claim the first favorite on this image. The detail in this low res image is still amazing. I can imagine how much better it looks as a print. (no vote)
