Description
This extreme macro portrait focuses on a person's eye, surrounded by wet, glossy brown skin and dark textured eyelashes. The iris reflects a warm interior light source, creating a striking focal point against the glistening complexion. Fine droplets of moisture cling to the skin surface, enhancing the tactile quality of the composition. The dramatic lighting and intimate framing emphasize the rich organic textures of the subject. Captured by photographer Nwaka Okparaeke in London.
