Thirty Day Photography Challenge: Eyes

I wanted to photograph some adorable children's eyes for today's challenge, but they were not still long enough for the macro setting to work.  Pip and I played a fun game of chase, though, as he ran from his photo being taken.  Every time I came near him, even with no camera, he would squeal and take off, hoping for me to chase him with the camera.  So at least today's challenge yielded a little cardio.

 Instead, here are my eyes.  They are hazel. The brows are a bit unruly, and they are entirely make-up free as per usual these days.  A few years ago I used to exult in eyeliner and so on every day.  Now I only have time for lipstick and maybe some mascara.

I used to play a game when I was a teenager.  I would cover the faces in magazines and catalogs, all except the eyes (as above), and try to guess what the person was really feeling.  It doesn't work on myself, alas, but it was still a fun game.  Feel free to guess what I'm thinking/feeling if you'd like in the comments.  I know what my sister will guess.  She always comes up with a way to make this sort of game puerile. (Which is one of the characteristics I like about her, actually.)

The only other eyes that would stay still long enough were Jesus' eyes in the Pantocrator icon.  The eyes are cool because they are intentionally different.  One side of the icon shows Christ blessing all and teaching; the other shows him with the Book of Life at the final judgment, with a fiery eye.  Thus the wonky eye on the right (his left eye).  I've always thought his left eye was crying.
