Don't know if anyone had done this, or even if it makes sense to do it, but I always have liked taking pictures of eyes.

This one is of my Wife's eye.

I love the colour in her iris.

You can also see my Glad (read DIY) softbox reflected in her pupil.

Wish I had decent software so I could make the white of her eye brighter (or less blood vessels).

beautiful color, do they call that gray? and is the other iris the same?

They're a gray blue, I'd guess you would say. In sunlight they have more of a blue cast.

I think they are both the same, I guess now I gotta convince her to let me do the other one.

Luckily both her, my daughter and my son have light eyes (the girls are blue and my boy's is a green/hazel colour). I got the Brown eyes.... but like my mom says "you can see out of them right".... so I guess I shouldn't complain.

Thanks Jason, I guess I should have done a search first. There are some cool eye shots in there (and some scary ones too). :lol:
