cool processing, and a wonderful idea for this shot. Has a very surreal look to it, with the large eye and processing. Really well done...

@Judy: Ha! I never thought of that, but you are right...Maybe the name of the book is "I Spy?"
@Marcie: Thanks Marcie!
@Lorena: Thanks, Lorena! I liked the texture too. It is not really my style, but I thought it worked well with this picture!

OMG! How did you do this? This is pure art...through and through! I love this one so much! Wow!

@bluechameleon: I processed using a black and white gradient map in the Overlay blend mode. Then i just added a texture! Thanks for the compliment!

Clever processing, resulting in a very original looking image. Excellent from conception to final result.

Congrats on making to the spotlight! Bravo! I just took a similar photo of my girl few days ago but the editing you did is fabulous! Is it an action in Photoshop or you came up with your own? Either way it looks great!
