    Thats an odd angle, creates a different perspective, bravo.

  • Shelly Hiebert replied

    Odd angle?! You aren’t kidding! You should have seen my poor daughter all contourted and not being allowed to blink. I am sure it looked pretty crazy! Thanks for your comment :)

    This is Great! – The DOF has got to be under 4mm and you’ve still got the iris sharp! – technically a lot tougher than it seems – the perspective of looking up really adds to the image!

  • Shelly Hiebert replied

    Vikram, as I said to you earlier, I really do value your opinion very highly, and I appreciate you passing your thoughts on to me. Thanks so much :) I owe you big time!

    Wow! It looks as is you were sticking the lense right her eye! This is up close and personal as it gets, huh? I love this! You have succeeded in giving an abstract feel to an actual photo of an eye, great work!

  • Shelly Hiebert replied

    Thanks Johanne! My poor daughter…the things she does for me! I owe her big time I guess :)

    Beautiful charcoal-like textures this one, Shelly.

  • Shelly Hiebert replied

    Thanks girl! Appreciate your comment :)

  • Pete Costick

    Pete Costick

    Wow Shelly, this shot is amazing!!! The way you have captured in sharp focus that narrow dof to make the cornia’s spherical shape appear to magnify the detail on the iris and show the pupil so sharply (well that’s how I view it anyway).
    How long did your poor daughter have to endure before you got this shot, was she the ever willing subject, or was some form of payment needed to procure her services :)
    Great work my friend :)

  • Shelly Hiebert replied

    What an awefully nice comment Pete! Thank you :) And yes…my poor daughter! Staring into the light, lights pointed at her and flashing! Her eyes were watering so bad by the end she looked like a racoon from all the make up running! So the payment is some new makeup ;) Thanks again Pete :)

    So beautiful, I love the translucence and softness of this whilst still maintaining the crisp detail of the eyelashes for example, realy great work Shelly
