OK All! Canon DSLR Speed Challange is officially closed!

As usual, "EYE" witnessed some fine entries here and these were tough choices! After much deliberation, here are my choices:

1. picturepages- chez eyes. Instantly hypnotized by these eyes! Excellent composition and amazing detail on the eyes... It almost looks as though there is a pair of vitamin E capsules for irises... Well done!

2. Mom27andblessed- Inquiring eyes. I love the intense look in his eyes and also the unique dimensional quality in this photo. Very nice!

3. thedjo- untitled. Intense as well. The choice of B&W works here, giving the look more depth even though the eye itself is a bit dark. I would lose in a blinking contest here...Very nice also!

Great work everyone! Congratulations to picturepages! On with the next challenge!

[picturepages]

ohh wow..thanks!!!
*doing the happy dance* :)

That was fun...Now I pick the next challenge right?

hummmmm.... ok I think I got one....I'll go post it.

[thedjo]

[Robuk]

Thanks Robuk :)

Congrats to Mom27andblessed as well. :)
