The camera, or rather the camera shutter, can be compared with the human eye. The quantity of light applied to the film is regulated by the shutter while the human eye regulates it with the pupil. The main purpose of my thesis is presenting the macro photography of the human eye and detail introduction of all the possible steps that may be applied to professional macro photography.
First of all I shall theoretically introduce macro photography, the necessary preparations, the optimum equipment, such as lens options and lighting. I shall present how lighting affects the pupil and the shutter by comparison of both.
The experimental part of my thesis describes the analyses of research regarding multiple models and photographs of diversely colored human eyes with lighting variations. These photographs present the reaction, but also the color reproduction of an eye using different lighting methods. The result are photographs of diversely colored and structured eyes that were taken in lightened as well as dark studios and result in dilation of pupils.
The main goal is to determine the ideal setting for human eye photography.
