Beware of Eyes in the Clouds!
The "eyes" part of the image was created from the original image, in case you missed that at first glance. It came about by happy accident :D when I started working on it for “filter abuse”. I first used Topaz Adjust "ghostly" preset with tweaking to darken it considerably and then I was going to do Pixel Bender oil paint filter and I saw the fisheye filter in PB and clicked on it and moved it around, changed size, etc., and then I got half of the eyes part and the clouds looked just like an eye! Even had a black eyeball. So I duped the layer and flipped it horizontal, put them together and smoothed with a layer mask and painted the eyeballs blue then selected them and put them on a layer and worked on them with 2 interesting Ps brushes (one for the catch light) and a blue stroke, I think that’s about all! Other than adding the layer styles textures (Patterns) on both layers and outer glow in black on the outside of the eyes layer. And a stroke frame edge. If I was doing it "straight" I would have chosen more subtle textures to show more of the original image details.
