It was hard to get a good shot in focus of my own eye while I was doing the camera work. I Desaturated the red's and the Magenta color and it got rid of everything but My eye.

Jeremy, this is a great macro shot... I think th desaturation of everything but the blue works fairly well in this image. I don't believe there is really anything that I would change abou this image... One of the things that I do believe could be a problem here is the desaturation itself. You got several comments about the editing and how it was done legally. In my experience at DPC, I believe that the voter in general will score lower if they believe you have broken any rules. I can't remember if this photo got any DQ requests or not, but I believe that it did. It's unfortunate that a large number of people here don't have the understanding of what can and can't be done within the rules of the challenge. The modifications that you did do add some interest to the photo, IMO. In most cases, I try to avoid edits that could draw suspicion, no matter how simple they may be for this reason.
Is Visions also the name of the contact lens company? Just curious if it was a double play on words.
I like how the rest of the image is desaturated to bring the viewers eye directly to the .. well to the eye! :)
The focus and composition are all excellent as well.
Looks like contacts to me. Nice clear shot. Good texture photo. I just don't like B&W with colorization on part of it. Other wise real decent photo technically speaking. PTL 5
Very cool. In fact very very cool. My daughter fits contacts...I should of thought of this. O' you did well my friend. Love everything here, the light, focus, color, composition ........yeah!!!!!! Justine
