Is this a light effect, or heterochromia?

Asked by Sneki2 (2452points) July 26th, 2017

I got a new phone recently, and was trying the camera. When I snapped an image of myself, I noticed my left eye is kind of weird: http://imgur.com/RM49jXL

As you can see, half of it is darker than the other one.
It happens every time when I make a photo.

I was wondering if it’s possible to have two eye colours on one eye.

It could be sectoral heterochromia where part of the iris is a different colour.

I think the simple answer is – - >

A )The lens on the phone is offset (not centered on phone)

B) the lighting is from the back

Therefore the left eye is partially covered by the phone.

Basic photography, “Don’t get shadow of photographer in shot!”
Your phone is black right !
Try same shot with diffused light or light overhead.

I made some more images under different angles. They look the same.
I guess you were right, it was a shadow.

I took a couple of classes for photography. Got marked down on an other wise great shot, my shadow was in a corner of the shot. Should have cropped it out.
