Title: [Theme] Show me your eyes!
Post by: Billie Jean on March 26, 2016, 21:32:00: I have been searching through the forum, but I couldn't find any serial thread of eyes.
So I thought that it would be nice that I start one.

On the one of these photos is my mother's beautiful eye :)

I hope you will share the beauty and the depth of eyes that you manage to capture! ;D

Post by: Erik Lund on March 27, 2016, 01:38:26: These are fantastic ;) Well done!

Post by: Bjørn Rørslett on March 27, 2016, 01:51:49: Blue-coloured eye, up close.
Title: Re: Show me your eyes!
Post by: Bjørn Rørslett on March 27, 2016, 01:54:49: Insects have eyes too - large ones.

This is a section of the compound eye of a housefly. 25X magnification, using RGB filters on a microflash device.

Post by: Billie Jean on March 27, 2016, 10:23:14: Thank you, Erik! I'm glad that you like it :)

Bjørn, I just love how blue and brown colour of the iris can be noticed. Great photo!
And that eye of a housefly - beautiful and frightening at the same time. Love it!
Thank you for sharing those big and beautiful eyes! ;D

Post by: Almass on March 27, 2016, 11:30:55: Well, eyes have a very special emotional place for me and I am a modest supporter of the Royal Blinds Society in UK.

Title: Re: Show me your eyes!
Post by: elsa hoffmann on March 27, 2016, 11:40:50: Nice one Jakov :)
Almass - stunning. I have a special place for deaf people again - maybe we should have an "ear" thread too
The editing of the image is superb.
Title: Re: Show me your eyes!
Post by: Erik Lund on March 27, 2016, 12:56:45: Almass that is outstanding, pure velvet ;)
Title: Re: Show me your eyes!
Post by: Billie Jean on March 27, 2016, 18:54:48: Elsa, that's very strange white eye... so cool!

Jakov, I like so much Luka's eye and how there is your reflection in his pupil :)

Almass - this eye looks so soft and gentle. Really wonderful! :)
Title: Re: Show me your eyes!
Post by: elsa hoffmann on March 27, 2016, 18:59:53: Thank you Billy Jean for looking. Yes its a very anemic looking eye - from a flamingo. Eyes are the most important for me in any live thing - but it's hard if the eye disappears - as it the bird doesn't want you to know it has an eye
Title: Re: Show me your eyes!
Post by: Billie Jean on March 27, 2016, 19:29:25: Elsa, I agree, but then you feel like a winner when you succeed to capture that disappearing eye, right? :)
There is one very nice eye, and a fancy make up, I must say! :)

One blue-coloured eye from me ;)
Title: Re: Show me your eyes!
Post by: elsa hoffmann on March 27, 2016, 20:33:48: thanks Billy Jean (again) ;D
Your eye at least looks natural - my one is extremely touched up as photos for make up or beauty can not be used unless every spot is cleaned up.
Title: Re: Show me your eyes!
Post by: Jakov Minić on March 27, 2016, 20:58:30: Almass, your soft and gentle image is stunning!

Now, back to my kind of eyes :)
I don't know why I never shot eyes before...
My son again. IR.
Title: Re: Show me your eyes!
Post by: Billie Jean on March 28, 2016, 13:58:07: Elsa, the skin on your photo is super clean and I like that :)
Jakov - blurred and blue eye ...I love it! For some reason it remainds me of the sun :D

And more eyes...it will become an obsession ;D

Post by: Jakov Minić on March 28, 2016, 14:26:02: I feel like the eyes go with a face and that on their own don't illustrate the entire picture.
In other words, what's an eye without a nose :)

Very nice Jakovic, guess its time to visit the zoo's again now that I have a 400mm tele lens again :)
Title: Re: Show me your eyes!
Post by: Billie Jean on March 28, 2016, 14:45:45: Wow! Jan Anne, this is fascinating! :)
Jakov, then we should say that eyes and nose are the mirror of the soul :D by the way, really cool nose on the photo! ;D ;)
Title: Re: Show me your eyes!
Post by: Jakov Minić on March 28, 2016, 15:09:45: Ana, I don't much about an eye, a mirror, and a soul
What would the ones without a mirror do
Jan Anne should visit Apenheul
What's an eye without a hairdo :)

Thank you, Fons, for that beautiful photo :) Victor looks so cute and a little confused :)

Post by: Billie Jean on March 29, 2016, 11:49:50: Andy, I love those brown eyes! Especially with that mask - looks so mysterious :) And I fell in love with those eyelashes! :D
Can you just tell me what's that strange creature with that big and beautifully captured white eye? It's really impressive! :)

Øivind, the reflection in that big black eye is great! :)
