As some of you guys know, I had an ulcer on my left eye this year. Unfortunately, it´s the kind of thing that leaves lots of sequels depending on how bad it was.
By now, yup, I can see considerably clear with this eye. But sometimes depending on a lot of things, from weather to stress, it gets easily red-irritaded-blurried-etc...
I´ve been photographing more than drawing, too. Can´t focus that well for too much time on drawings, and honestly there´s a lack of time for it too.
Thanks for all the support, everyone. I´m strangely wishing I have an ultimate disease on this eye because I feel a hostage of it for hours, days and weeks during treatments and cares, that I know that in the end won´t be never enough.

I took this photo in my bathroom. On May I had an ulcer on this eye and now I weekly check it, trying to see if it´s everything OK. Suddenly, last month, before I go to bed I noticed it was terribly red again, and I took my weekly pic of it.Time
This photo was taken around 2:00AM. I had to wake up pretty earlier that day but was impossible to sleep with my eye "burning". After this pic I needed some long minutes to sleep yet, after some medicines and more...Lighting
Needed to set my ISO for 1600, what´s not my fav ISO and also my LED lights. It was pretty late at night and was just a simple pic, as I usually do weekly but earlier than that night.Equipment
I used my Canon 6D with a 50mm lens, extensor and my LED light only.Inspiration
Technically I wasn´t inspired. I care a lot about my eyes due to my photograph and drawing activities. After that ulcer I had on May, everything "out of plan" can make it get terribly red/irritated/burning. A week before this pic I had some hard times at my work and also the end of a complicated relationship, so, due to stress, blood pressure and more, suddenly it was looking like this.Editing
No 'valuable' post-processing. I usually import the photo to PC and only make some adjustments on White Balances.In my camera bag
Canon 6D and T3. Lens Canon 18-55mm, 50mm, 75-300mm and Pentax 35-80mm. An extensor tube and some lots of filters. I really preffer using them instead of softwares and plugins. A bit oldschool and primitive, but well...that´s me :)Feedback
I technically took this pic for my "routine" only. I´m really a fan of Macros but all those I did of my left eye weren´t artistically intended. Macros and B/W photos are, for me, a way to make more "explosive" portraits of simple things. From a drop of water to a little spider, if you get a way and a point of view to make them visibly important, you´ll begin to see and portrait the world around you really better and emotionally than many others close to you.
