Is it meant to pixelate like that? If so it's very 1970's. If not you need to adjust the resolution on what is probably a good image.

Very Picasso - now this is where pixelation works. LOL

I keep waiting for the photo to finish loading ...

I don't like the heavily pixelated effect.

Doesn't work for me. Tells me nothing about the subject. Looks like the original could have been a good portrait but the 'effect' really does nothing for me.

Ana said 818 days ago:

This is interesting. I would have liked one whole eye to show clear. That would have more impact. Nice, over all.

Zorilla, it is meant to be that pixelated.

Ana, yes, after looking at it for a while I thought much the same, a touch more visability of the underlying image on the left hand eye (her right)and it would have been stronger.

ArneG,

Cheers !

To me, the non-"cubified" version would likely be far, far better. While I like some forms of manipulation of photographs.... I think in this case the effect minimized the drama instead of enhancing it.

I hadn't seen this shot before. The eye peering out of the white is hypnotic. The pixellated effect is compelling.
