Photographer’s Note
This is a new display in the window of the Saks Fifth Avenue department store. It is actually a display of make-up, (if you get really close to the window in person you can see some make-up in the center of the eye!), but here you can see a reflection of Fifth Avenue. :-)

Nicely spotted Brenda, at first glance it looks like a very creative photoshop design, but upon closer inspection and your note, one realizes the incredible detail you found. The reflection is just superb, thanks for sharing!

Hi Brenda,
intriguing thumbnail and more than a pleasant surprise after opening it full size!
The lashes look like 3D and the whole image is utterly surreal.
Superb,
Robi

Brenda Elaine,
This really a great concept you worked on!!!
It is better to cover total eye, since upper portion is vert tightly cropped.
Nice work indeed.

Hi Breanda - this is brilliant, easily one of the most creative shots I seen recently, I'm amazed at how perfect parts of the reflection are, almost like a mirror.

Hey Brenda,
This is a great shot. Personally, NYC is my fav cities in the world. And this real-life-reflected-in-commercial-art photograph really blew me away. The clarity and effect of the photograph just blew me away.
Well done..!

Very beautiful capture. The angle you have selected, the composition of the flag and the people on the steps make this a very attractive picture. I wonder how the whole thing would look like if you had gotten rid of the signature below. Impressive by all means.. :)

Hi Brenda
Amazing reflection in this eye. Perfect quality.
There is only one problem - this eye has an iris but it hasn`t a pupil ;)
