'Look into my eyes...'

what an overwhelming response, i am moved, feel on top of the world :) thank you.

I like the pretty baby!!! excell sharpness, though i would have preferred the left eye more in focus. Was it done intentionally to creat a soft effect?

there are 2 reasons here, one i didnt have much DOF control with my canon G2 and secondly i wanted the eyes to move to the eye in the background.

Pradeep...this will be a hit I thought when I saw it first.Well...now it's one of the top photos!! Cheers to you to the photographer who captured the innocent world in her eyes!!

Absolutely stunning work. Great imagination and skill. Congratulations.

Just the one word describes it!

It is indeed very tough to correctly describe a nice piece of art.....

I just happened to see if there are any comments on my photo and lo behold! its the TOP photo, i cant explain the feeling, its still not sunk into me. I would like to thank each one of you who took time to see the photo, rate it and comment on it. Thank you. cheers! and happy shooting!

What a creatively wonderful image. Don't we all wish we could view the world through the eyes of a child? It would make it so much more interesting and peaceful. What innocence, what wonder! What a nice job!

I second your thoughts, I always felt it would be so nice to just remain a child forever :) cheers!

Incredibly, hearteningly, adorably beautiful. Excellent work Pradeep.The child looks very sweet.

Muaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack !!!

I have always known you to put your heart and soul in whatever you do...in every smallest effort!!! And..it really shows!!! Hats off..buddy!! Great work!

yesssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! congratulations pradeep!! u reached the top with a G2 showing everyone with dslr's that the image is more important than what was used to make it..

Pradeep,

Great imagination, and really brilliant piece of photography.

I think placing the focus on the right-most eye (the childs' left) is what does it for me. If it were in the left-most eye (the childs' right) the impact would be lost. As the viewer, I have to move across the whole image before finding what is "in focus" therefore I see more of the image than if the other eye were in focus. I'm not sure if that makes sense to anyone else but me :)

yes rob it makes lot of sense to me, thomas turks comment mentions the same thing :) thanks for your comment rob :)

a first class masterpiece! and a most gorgeous child...

 

Terrific DOF....Nicely Cropped...just visited your page..great pics..

To show me this, and let me enjoy this. And you deserve all those nice compliments, don't wonder about it, just be happy.

its a great image really.........but,i personally feel that all the touch-ups and editing done on the ps has made it what it is and if you are the photographer as well as the editor of it,kudos to you.....a great job,as i have said....this is performance.

the focus on the left eye is just amazing: there's so much to see in that deep beautiful dark eye so well framed by its cils. the skin tone and the slight out of focus add to it. Great job!

gr8 job..nicely captured ..and the baby is very cute!!

The baby is adorable. She looks like she's held the whole world up in her eyes . I like the " i know it all " smile she's got on her lips .I was a little doubtful on the focus on the right eye, but read your explanation on what u had in mind while taking the shot. Its beautiful !!!!!!!

Real Nice work Pradeep...keep it up..!
