What is the nature of the small single sparkle or white dot/highlight midway along the lower eyelids? I notice it in this lady and in the one featured in Aug 25th Special Render. Its balanced positioning make it appear cosmetically contrived. One vote in a million, I know, but for me at least, it doesn't work big time. It's impossible to ignore, far too bright and given that the eyes are the main focus when looking at a face (which makes this an abnormally sensitive problem and thus equal reaction), hugely distracting and, in any case, really doesn't do anything (does it?) to accentuate beauty. If it IS intended to be a cosmetic enhancement, this, for me, is affectation overkill and if my opinion carries any weight at all (I know it can't, but I thought I'd say it anyway), I'd personally like to see this annoyance gone. The natural sparkle of light reflecting off the lens of the eyes is, in my opinion, quite enough accentuation and in "The Grey Dream", is exceptionally well done anyway. So bravo for that! Sorry if you think I'm overreacting, but make no mistake I love almost every (other) aspect of "The Grey Dream" so something as acutely unlovable and intrusive to me as this is no doubt inevitably going to elicit a heightened "negative" reaction.
