Interesting and most unusual. The blend of colors make this a winner.

Looks just like an eye alright. I like the colors.
Tad Bowman
Very interesting indeed. I like it. I don’t think I would have figured it out without the explanation.
Anurag
Well, that hardly looks like an abstract. Its mimicking an eye of a large animal probably to ward off potential predators. What do you have to say Thomas? (Thomas Vingaud, if you are tuned in.)
Great composition John and Tina.

I agree with Anurag. What is abstract about it? It’s an interesting shot,however,but not exceptional.

this really has that wow effect. Before I read your description I was trying to guess what it was but had no idea. great capture and very nice colors.

Good, sharp macro shot; not the easiest thing to get all those tiny feathers in focus.

Just like ‘Malta Photography’ I tried to guess but had to give up. I too had an Wauuw experience.
Thanks a lot for sharing this very different and special image!

The warmth of knowing the eyes cover you and the knowledge seeps in with the vision of the world and encompasses you with all that emboldens your being and surrounds you with the colors of living…

My sister knew this was a moth/butterfly, but at first I thought you had added color to some animal shot……………
I’d also like to see the whole moth–size–habitat…….guess I’ll have to Google it.
Fantastic macro!

A first look seams a edited eye. Nice!
