Photographer’s Note
From the expansive collection of the British Museum, here is a bust of caesar Agustus in bronze probably made in egypt. The eyes always creeped me out.

Interesting lighting here, the strong side light adds to the eyes with haunting shadows and picks out some good textures to the bronze, you have also given it a very good crop which also adds to the overall effect . Might be tempted to try and clone or reduced the really bright top left hand corner
well done

I love the focus on the eyes. I just stare into them and get lost. The shadows over the eyes add to the effect. I am not sure why you have so much showing to the right of the face, there is nothing there I want to see.
