In the light of my eyes I behold my world

All critiques are welcome.

Es muy bonita.

Lovely idea. But i wish you had chosen to keep the eyes dark instead of the nose.

Thank you Jose, I'll convey your comment to my friend whose picture this is.

 

Sunil, thanks for visiting and your kind comment. On my monitor the nose doesn't seem darker than the eyes; however, the nostril does. I left it as such because in my opinion it provides depth and a sense of direction---to do with the light. Nevertheless, perhaps the darkness may be lightened a bit.

Nice. I would like to learn this technique.May be you can help me out. Thanks.

Nelson, I explained the procedure in detail below a companion image:

What wasn't clear perhaps was how to place the table lamp... it has to cast the right amount of shadow so that increasing the brightness doesn't blow off the definitions. I didn't get it right all the time as well, as is evident from the variations in the pictures. I hope this helps.

Once again there is a most amusing spectrum of ratings... at least it provides for a nice laugh, it's becoming rare these days.

Wonderful HK expression dear Debasish!
