Description I will arise and go now,
For always night and day,
I hear the water lapping
With low sounds on the shore.

While I stand on the roadway
Or on the pavements grey
I hear it in the deep heart's core.

~W.B.Yeats

For the love towards ocean.

A handheld monochrome self-portrait colored in photoshop.

My eyes are brown originally and I don't like to alter such realities in photoshop, but in this case it worked so well for my concept.

This inspires me a lot. Thank You ^^ I think I will take such pictures myself and edit them, I love making the eyes look so different and sparkly.

Lovely capture. Love the framework. Did you by chance take a shot a little less tight? Love the coloring within the eye. Love that you added Yeats to this. Adds to the overall piece. Keep up the good work.

You are more than welcome. I have seen quite a few people here that have so much potential...but no where near enough encouragement. And I would just like to let those few know that they have someone rooting for them.
