I have been away since last week staying with my ma since my papa died just over a week ago. Thought I would just get this one done as a distraction for me for a few hours today. I needed the break. Hope it qualifies as a good idea. I happened to pack my macro extensions this trip and my lil model was willing to hold still long enough for 50 or so shots.

What do you all think?

EDITED VERSION...

E=MC squared....

    Hi Jag,,, I am sorry to hear about your family's loss..I do hope you "all" are holding up..ok..iloveyou.gif

    =======================

    About the shot... I like it, and it is awesome, like all of your stuff.. My only nit pick is the white blowout on the lower right corner of the iris, you may be able to recover some of it though since you took so many shots.. perhaps you can layer it in? That is some amazing detail on the lashes..

    Other than that,, awesomely creative..thumb.gif

    So sorry about your dad.

    I absoutely love the idea of the photo.

    One thing that might make it better is if the e=mcsquared were on a square instead of a rectangle.

    Also, you might rotate it to the right and lose the lower lid.

    Just some thoughts.

    Take care.

    Thank you all for your kind comments and thoughts for my family.

    I have edited the image. The 'mc squared' image was originally a square crop but when I rotated to look like it was laying flat (for more interesting composition) it distorted. So I reapplied it without the projection of being flat.
