2 January - bright eyed & bushy tailed?

Hmm, maybe not then... Always annoys me when I take a close up of my eye & see just how many fine lines there are around it,
but then I remind myself that I'm 44 years old and I've laughed a lot
and that's the reason why they're there! Each little line is a memory of previous good times!
Do you think anyone will notice the little bit of colour I've snuck into the B&W shot today?

Great reflection in your eye.

Excellent, Nicky!
Guest 03-Jan-2007 10:27
I really like the treatment of this shot - it is a strong shot anyway but the mono effect with the colour on the iris highlighted really makes it a winner!

Beautiful, Nicky...
Greg Harp03-Jan-2007 05:15

Nicky how could you???? I do like the spot of color though...
Deborah Lewis02-Jan-2007 23:33
Beautiful shot and I love the color!
Thierry Lucas02-Jan-2007 23:23
Wow ! beautiful picture Nicky ! Vote !
Very nice composition, and wonderful color of the eye. (Your true color ?)
This is a MACRO, nicky ! is normal to see lines !
I am sure you have baby skin :)
In addition, you should play the 44 with the lottery:
Age: 44
Number of lashes to the top: 44 !
number of lashes in bottom: 44 !
( I counted ! )
You are undoubtedly a very "balanced" (not sure of Syntax, google translation !?!) woman :)
I can read in your eyes you have good weather in England. It is a chance, in Paris it rains !

Thierry.

If they didn't notice the blue before they read your synopsis, they know it now. LOL Fun photo.

this is a great close-up Nicky, didn't notice the lines, but my eye-sight is deteriorating now that I'm over 40...

Wonderful shot Nicky. Selective color makes it even more beautiful in B&W. Vote
Cindi Smith02-Jan-2007 18:20
I love this. I'll turn 50 in March so I totally understand. Everyday, I find a new line but they are what gives us character!

You are but a youngster! Lovely eye, the blue tone works very well!
Pic Chick02-Jan-2007 16:40
Us "well aged" gals gotta stick together - and I say it's a great shot! The touch of color is perfect. I am far from bright eyed this morning tho....:(
Guest 02-Jan-2007 16:35
What a wonderful perspective! The lines represent so many happy memories!! Love it ~V~
Guest 02-Jan-2007 16:23
What we need here is a man's perspective, and I can report beyond all doubt, absolutely beautiful! V
beverley harrison02-Jan-2007 15:46

beverley harrison02-Jan-2007 15:44

Victoria02-Jan-2007 15:25

Tricia02-Jan-2007 15:22
Your eye looks remarkably bright considering all that New Year's Eve wine too... ;) This is a lovely shot Nicky, the beautiful blue sky with a puffy white cloud behind you in the reflection in your eye is lovely too.
Jola Dziubinska02-Jan-2007 15:20
Not so many yet, Nicky, you need to laugh more :))
Wonderful touch of blue, fantastic reflection.
Rose Atkinson02-Jan-2007 15:12
