I swear people that yell about Freeze Peach have no idea what it means. If you provoke someone and then they act on that provication, then it’s on you, not them.
Great question! That horizontal “blink” and the three oval pupils are various tricks of the light as it bounces off the mantis shrimp’s triple-banded, highly-faceted eyes!
Mantis shrimp do not have eyelids, so they don’t blink—but they do clean their eyes frequently to keep things 20/20!
The eyes of mantis shrimp have three bands, each with a focal point. One mantis shrimp eye is therefore tri-focal, meaning they have depth perception with just one eye! Those three focal point “pupils” appear when the eye is looking toward the camera.
Each band is sensitive to different types of light, including polarized light, allowing mantis shrimp to see and communicate using visual signals that play across a huge visual spectrum!
Was getting some of my images ready to be made into prints today so I thought I’d make a guide for anyone else interested in making prints of their work :D
Been getting questions so here’s a gif that shows what soft proofing does.
Prints usually come out darker than monitor so we make the image lighter to compensate. The change in tones is mostly in the darks & comes when we remove some ink but shouldn’t be too noticeable in print
