    Distrurbing.
    Why are you wanting the eye out of focus? Not a criticism, but a question.

    The hand orientation feels much more "A Clockwork Orange" than medical professional. Not sure what what to do. Perhaps just a thumb raising the upper lid? I get the OOF aspect and why you want it that way.

    yes, i think a reshoot is in order.. as it was self shot rolleyes1.gif
    That's my hand and right eye.. (I injured it when i was 17). and besides it's already in medical books from the wierd scist that formed after the 3rd surgery. But i was going for creepy / dark .. think it helped in BW ne_nau.gif

    Not the 15 minutes of fame one hopes for...
    Dark and creepy is accentuated with the B&W.

    Cool idea.

    Creepy, but I see what your trying to do. Why not set the white of the eye as a focal point?

    Yes, sorry if it wasn't clear, or something. Like the photo. Sorry that you had a medical journal-worthy cyst and three eye surgeries.
