He received a PhD in Theoretical Physics from Yerevan State University in 2001 for research in the field of Quantum Chaos and investigations in the field of Quantum Technologies. Yet, Suren Manvelyan is probably best known for his stunning macro-photography. Especially popular is his series of close-ups of human eyes called Your Beautiful Eyes.

Incredible images for sure. But we’re having a debate in my office about the honeycomb texture in some of the images. I think that is the actual texture of the eye, while other believe its a honeycomb filter on the light source. We have no medical knowledge, so if this is a dumb question excuse us, but who is right.
And once again, incredible stuff, thanks.

The honeycomb texture is a light source.

I need to know how this is done if any one knows please post details here. My mum has the most amazing yellow eyes and I have always wanted a photo like this of them.
If you could let me know how it was done/lens/settings.
Thanks. Jon

The 1st and 3rd pics of the blue eyes with the gold flecks…. That’s called Litsch Nodules. It happens in people with neurofibromatosis. I know this because I have them. My eyes are blue with gold specks in them.

From an iridogist’s standpoint, these are some very unwell people!

Too bad that iridology is not supported by quality research studies and is considered pseudoscience. I’m not saying that these people are (un)healthy, I’m just saying that iridologists are not capable of assessing this.

Great pictures!!! great lighting

I find the lighting, mainly the large overblown highlights, in all the pictures ugly, or at least distracting from the purpose if the idea is to present the beauty of eyes inspected closely.

Has anyone seen Rankin’s eyescape series? do a search for them

I did some ophthalmic photography for an internship and slit lamp cameras are the best for capturing the iris without all the excess glare. I’m not sure what type of lens is on it, but it is pretty much a super macro lens. That was my favorite part of my internship.

These are amazing and hopefully, human eyes will also become like those.

They should do with with people on different drugs. I think it would be funny to see a stoner’s eye after smoking some week
