This week's task is to capture a self-portrait to show our beauty within, not focusing on the perceived imperfections we have, concentrating on our strengths & courage. I decided to focus on my eyes.
The eyes are the window to the soul.
~~ William Shakespeare ~~
Try staring into someone’s eyes for an uninterrupted 15 seconds and you’ll see what I mean. All the expression you feel comes through your eyes. The eyes can appear to glow from excitement and reflect your enjoyment of life. They can also show the depth of sadness and despair in your heart.
By looking into a persons eyes, you can see all their hidden emotions, attitudes and thoughts. They eyes truly are the windows to the soul.
Great post Bonnie. If we pay attention to what we see in the eyes, our own, our family's, friends, and even strangers, we can, if we dare, be more kind. Be more aware and more friendly. Happy New Year and I hope you have a great year!!!
ReplyDeleteYou really can 'walk a mile in another man's shoes' by looking into their eyes. Happy New Year to you also. May it be a good one for you.
DeleteWhat a great post and what great pictures. I love the close up.
ReplyDeleteOh yes..the eyes are the windows to our souls! Lovely post!
ReplyDeletesuch beautiful eyes! wonderful pics
ReplyDeleteYes, the eyes are very expressive and your eyes are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI do believe that the eye's are the window to the soul! The eyes can tell you allot about a person before they said a word. Your eyes are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutley! I've found an eye-to-eye conversation with my toddler the most effective means of corection. In fact, when she knows she has done wrong she won't meet my eyes. Eventually she realizes they always smile in the end. Your eyes are beautiful
ReplyDeleteGreat picture... Your eyes are a lovely colour. Do they become all brown in summer? Mine change colour summer to winter depending on the sun.
ReplyDeleteNope, they are the same colour all year, through all the seasons.
DeleteWhat a great concept. Your eyes are a lovely color.
ReplyDeleteLove it! The eyes are indeed the windows to the soul...and also allows us to see the beauty in the world!
ReplyDeleteGreat interpretation, love the shot of your eyes and the quote, lovely!
ReplyDeleteI had the same thought as you and tried to just get some shots of my eyes, but had a heck of a time getting the camera to focus just right. Yours turned out perfectly and your eyes are mesmerizing. There's so much depth in there!
