The reflection in the eye is a nice touch.

Checked the original brown. Big improvement here.
Good image of an eye. Maybe a slightly tighter crop would have been helpful. The eyeball seems just a little dull...a bit of sparkle would have been nice.
Clever idea to reflect the image of the ribbon in the eye. 6

My vote for most creative subliminal message :-)

Beautiful eye and nice dof, although I don't like this over-softening of the skin. But probably due to the lighting needs of the "trick", I find the eye itself too dark.
