Eyes are the window to the soul, or so they say. I’m not sure about all that but in my opinion eyes tell about quality immediately. I make regular practice of photographing the eyes of nearly every whitetail and many other animals that I do, not for posting on social media but for my own reference as to my consistency of quality. Photos hide nothing, and many times a quick pic will reveal imperfections that can be fixed or touched up. I learn a lot by taking these pics and also looking at live deer pics and of other taxidermists pics of their work. None of us are too old to learn. I’ve included in this post some eye pics of my commercial mounted whitetails from over the past 6 years. Consistency is something I strive for, or for improvement. I hope everyone enjoys the pics and if any other taxidermists see the posts and would like to throw their eye pics in the comments go for it! I enjoy seeing others work as well. The purpose of the post is not for advertisement, I have an abundance of work, it’s for education and just to show what I do and maybe see what others do. Always strive for greatness
