Eye colour diversity

[papillon]

I'm interested in doing an eye colour photo project - I've always been fascinated by the range of eye colours, and would love to take a wide range of close-up eye photos. I've already done this with my family (see here) with pretty interesting results.

 

It's not for any kind of course/work assignment, purely for interest. Would anyone be up for this?

 

[Mine are light green, with a light brown ring around the pupil.]

me and you are both green eyed then, leading the pole at 100%, i can't imagine that being the case for long.

I'm hazel...NOT brown. It's interesting, as my nan had eyes that were mostly blue with a browny/green ring around the middle. My dad's are kind of half and half, and mine are mostly browny/green with a blue bit around the outside that gets bigger in the light. Tis interesting stuff!

That'd follow, in terms of eye colour genetics If both parents are blue-eyed, it's almost impossible that the child will be anything other than blue-eyed, unless the child's grandparents had different colour eyes.

Ooh i love eye colour. Mine are blue with a dark blue rim around the iris.

I love it when someone has really pale blue eyes with a rim around - always been jealous of that!

i dont know why i posted brown on the poll by mistake. i actually have deap blue eyes with a deep green flash in the middle. my partner has hazel eyes.

A friend of mine has the most startling bright blue eyes, tinged, naturally with very dark lashes. I was always very jealous of her eyes.

 

I inherited my mother's eye colour, a very dark, grey-blue, which look a little strange against my very blonde hair.

 

When I put mascara on my eyelashes, my eyes look identical to my cousin's, right down to the colour. It's like my cousin looking back at me in the mirror. (it's funny cos my cousin's mother in law has always said how she can't tell cuz and I apart on the telephone. We sound so alike)

 

edit to add, a lad who was in my class at school had one blue eye, and the other was half-and-half brown-and-blue. odd!
