I like that you shot each other for this - very clever! And I think you ended up with the best photograph, but Oliver had the best model to work with. :-)
I really liked this shot, crisp, good contrast and DOF but preferred the colour version eyewave took (only representative for this challenge specifically as it was colour/real life) :)
My only gripe is that in both shots, your left eyes are open, which is not normally the case unless quickly composing out of the viewfinder.
