Description

You never know what you'll find if you keep your eyes peeled on a nature walk- in fact you might see eyes looking back at you. I saw an eye-shaped "knot" on a mossy fallen tree limb while walking in a forested area near Stoughton, WI, and knew immediately what I'd do with it (mirrored it and added in my own iris to complete the illusion). Zoom in to inspect the incredible moss and algae detail lurking deep in this image! Another image, taken before a frost has greener tones- I have posted it by same title as #2, if that color palette is preferable.

Taken 1/12/19 with Pentax K-1 and DFA100mm macro lens - this image is very high resolution - I shot it using "pixelshift" mode of Pentax (multiple frames per image) and then mirrored so >70 MegaPixel - it would look fantastic on metal or acrylic printed potentially very large.
