Sharp detailed and brilliant close up Fred and the eyelids look like they have make up on them, very unusual.

I think that's what my eyes look like having sat in front of the computer all day! Sad

It's a great shot Fred. Lots of detail and lovely composition.

Wonderful closeup, Fred, it's not often we see that membrane, just open eyes, so it makes it an interesting image.

The 35mm films used in your shots bring tears to my eyes as I worked for Kodak for 26 years.

Good old days.
