This photo features a close-up of a caucasian femael human eye completely surrounded by bright red leaves. The human eye takes up the middle third of the photo, with the subject staring slightly past the camera. The eye is made up of three main color sections: directly surrounding the pupil, is a small area of chestnut brown with some spots of yellow. This combination contrasts the intense shades of light blue and green that the brown fades into. At the very end of the iris, the blues and greens fade into a ring of a green so dark it appears to be grey. The person has a thin strip of eyeliner on their upper eyelid and long, sweeping eyelashes. The eye is surrounded on all sides by sections of red leaves, with light colored skin exposed below. The leaves are layered around this person’s eye, the one closest to the camera taking up the bottom third of the photo. The leaf on the left hand side appears to peak up slightly from underneath the leaf at the bottom of the picture, but then travels up to the top of the photo and is tucked under the leaf on the right side. The leaf of the right layers on top of the leaf coming from the left, and then tucks up under the leaf at the bottom of the photo. This right leaf creates a soft shadow near the tear duct of the eye. The leaves are a vibrant red with small lines of yellow throughout. They are also spotted with black dots throughout.
