Question: Taking pictures of eyes!?
Where can I find some guides on taking pictures of people's eyes!. I want to know stuff like lighting, distance, ect!.

I am referring to photos where you see both eyes and a little bit around them but hide the lower face!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Get a scarf (preferably black) cover face except for the eyes and eyebrows!. Go to a window (in the day) and set your camera to macro mode!. (the button with a tulip on it) using a small mirror, reflect the screen of your camera so you can see what your taking a picture of!. Keeping your hands steady and holding your camera around 10cm away from your eyes, Press the shutter half way till the camera focuses, if it succesfully focuses then fully press the shutter!. Upload it to your computer and then open it in any image editing programme!. Selcect the area (using a rectangle select) where your eyes are but not showing the scarf!. Press Crop!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
