    I used Blocks 5 pixels, depth 30, random and then Nik Film Effects Agfa Optima 400 and masked the eye back in.

    Thanks for looking. Comments and suggestions appreciated:)

    Cheryl, I had to look at it for a minute to see it clearly-in a good way. the image has kept my attention. I might take a small slice off the top if it were mine to bring your eye down a little. I like the eye. Nicely done.:)

    Cheryl, that eye is hypnotic! The crop and effect make a very nice abstract for me. I can imagine several things here, like an alien landscape or city with the all-seeing eye! Nice!

    Wouldn't have known it was a 'gator without the title, Cheryl! I like the flow of colors and the detail masked back with the eye. Nice work. I think I agree with Denise about cropping a bit from the top.

    Another great image, Cheryl. The gator is almost prehistoric here... nice use of filters.

    Very interesting image. It really grabbed and held my attention. The resulting colors and textures combined with the eye produces works very well here.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Like the eye and the effect Cheryl. I think a crop from the top would make it stronger too.

    Very cool use of the filters! He appears to be smiling, but that eye says something entirely different. Love it.
