In front of your very nose
« on: February 12, 2017, 11:37:41 am »

I have heard it said that interesting photos don't always require a trip to an exotic location, they are sometimes right there in front of you if you only manage to see them. I was glad to have noticed this when the sun broke thru and illuminated my extra eyeglasses sitting on my desk.

Sony RX10-iii

You're certainly not the first to have noticed and photographed this subject. But it's a lovely shot!

Hi Peter. Good shot. Looks as if your left eye has a more emphatic correction than your right eye.

You could almost say on top of your nose... and as for the uniqueness, I'm sure no one has previously photographed exactly that prescription  ;)
Maybe you could do a series of "Portraits of Ocular Correction" ?

Nice picture; funny thing: it's yet another shot that, being too big for my monitor, strikes me as perfect as it appears, cropped.

I guess Capa was right...

Nice, I like the almost B&W background, just perfect to put the eyeglasses in the "spotlight"!
Wel done.
