Thank you sooooooo much Heathersik!!!!!!!!! I got it down pat now!!!!! I have been trying to figure out the eye pop things for a little while now. I don't have much time to sit down and learn how with a one year old.

Let me know what you guys think of these. I'm just learning how to do this. So they might be a little over sharp.

A little helper on here by the name of Heathersik taught me how to do it. But last night I did stumble upon this. It might just help ya out. It takes a sec. to load.

Erin, I am SOOOO glad that I was able to help you. You did a great job with the eyes. But it doesn't hurt to have a couple of subjects that have beautiful eyes to begin with.. Nice work.. I really like the 2nd picture and the conversion one is nice also.. Well done. :)

Thank you!!!!! I just sat down the other night and made myself do it!!! I was up way past 2am!!!!!!!!!! It gets addictive!!!!!! Yes the childrens have VERY nice eyes!!!! I remembered another little girl with eyes like these. So I am going to work on it when I get time. Plus not that I am inspired I have a little model named Kaegan that will be getting some new photos taken today!! ;)

Nice job. There's an art involved when it comes to the eyes. Eyes are the windows to your soul, and beautiful eyes can capture your attention and hold it.
... The trick is knowing when you've achieved the right PP and not getting caried away. When you can tell that the eyes have been sharpened or overly saturated or excessively brightened, it's time to reduce the opacity on that layer and back off!!! Otherwise, it just looks artificial.
Keep playing, and have fun!!
