I used my younger sister's p&s, which has a super macro mode. I would have never been able to get this close with my camera. Lit with a desk lamp, model is my younger sister.

i love the detail in the iris...the only thing i can suggest is that the slightly overexposed white area to the left can be a little distracting b/c its so harsh. i also wished that the tips of the eyelashes could had been more in focus. other than that, this shot really draws one's attention, good job :)
Wow! Not sure I want to know this individual! Too much energy, too much attitude ... and I'm older than dirt. Evocative photo I will give a good score to!
would love to have seen this in colour...it looks like the proportions haven't been constrained, but I might be wrong...the detail in the eyes is amazing
