Incredible photo series by Suren Manvelyan features extremely detailed close-ups of human eyes.
“Every day we see hundreds of eyes but do not even suspect they have such beautiful structure, like surfaces of unknown planets.”

this really… i used to think the eye was a beautiful body part, now, it really just looks like a slice of our brains.

Very cool. I love getting a behind-the-scene view of anatomy. I just wish the parts were labeled so I knew exactly what I’m looking at. Rods and cones? what’s the fly-eye looking bit?-is that part of the camera or the eye? Why are some parts golden looking? Does that person have golden eyes?

Gorgeous. Something about looking into someone’s eyes gives such a sense of connectedness and understanding. Beautiful photos of some remarkable eyes. Thank you. :-)

Why do some people just automatically assume everything is photoshopped?
Fascinating close ups.

First reaction was to cringe. While I love other people’s eyes, suddenly seeing them this way throws a person off.
But then the point that these are beautiful surfaces.
The human body is so breathtaking in how it looks and works sometimes. c:

The blue/green eyes are BEAUTIFUL! But all the brown eyed ones are absolutely… Wretched. Which makes me sad, because I have brown eyes :(

Beautiful, ghastly, awesome, and the product of 1/4 of a lifetime of passion. This is some amazing work, and it probably started on a lark.
I see you seeing me. ; )

I wonder if this is something an optometrist might see every time they take an ‘Optomap’ of one’s eye…strikingly beautiful.

I would love to see a greater variety of color – like some really blue and its variations as well as really green ones…..would guess they might be even more breathtaking…..
