This is just a late night thought for a Monthly Challenge sometime: Eyes, perhaps parts of eyes or even a cornea! See below for what the cornea is in English.Why this thought? When our black and white kitty sits on my lap and turns just right, I look at her eyes, one eye, and the clear dome of her cornea is easily seen. I can see right through it and behind that is the pupil of her eye. I tried one pic but was overexposed. Flash is not an option on this eye shot!
So, cornea, parts of eyes, seductive or alluring eyes of the tall dark stranger or the woman you meet by happenchance..the begging eyes of your dog, the strange eyes of a snake or lizard, whatever. If you think eyes might be a good challenge idea please let me(us, really) know.
This is posted as a thought. Thanks for reading. TomD'Art.
The cornea is the transparent, dome-shaped window covering the front of the eye. It is a powerful refracting surface, providing 2/3 of the eye's focusing power. Like the crystal on a watch, it gives us a clear window to look through.
