and not an eye at all but whenever I look at this photo an eye is what I see complete with iris, pupil and eyelashes.

About Irene Waters 19 Writer Memoirist
I began my working career as a reluctant potato peeler whilst waiting to commence my training as a student nurse. On completion I worked mainly in intensive care/coronary care; finishing my hospital career as clinical nurse educator in intensive care. A life changing period as a resort owner/manager on the island of Tanna in Vanuatu was followed by recovery time as a farmer at Bucca Wauka. Having discovered I was no farmer and vowing never again to own an animal bigger than myself I took on the Barrington General Store. Here we also ran a five star restaurant. Working the shop of a day 7am - 6pm followed by the restaurant until late was surprisingly more stressful than Tanna. On the sale we decided to retire and renovate our house with the help of a builder friend. Now believing we knew everything about building we set to constructing our own house. Just finished a coal mine decided to set up in our backyard. Definitely time to retire we moved to Queensland. I had been writing a manuscript for some time. In the desire to complete this I enrolled in a post grad certificate in creative Industries which I completed 2013. I followed this by doing a Master of Arts by research graduating in 2017. Now I live to write and write to live.
Wow, Irene. I am so glad you made the effort of compiling this wonderful post today. I can see that no. 1 (and 2 of course) is related to you – the same beautiful shade of blue in her non-blinkers :D. I appreciate the entire collection which I never expected to be so extensive and original, but the last one, the last one is an amazing response to the theme. I hope you agree with me when I say it is my favourite. Thank you.

I do agree with you. I think it is a great photo and it always make me think of an eye whenever I look at it although of course it has nothing to do with eyes at all.

What a collection of eyes. That last one is rather incredible – a composite eye – gorgeous.

Eyes completely creep me out. In photos like this, I mean. I don’t have an eye phobia. 🙂 That last picture really does look like an eye.

I remeber playing with a fish eye at dinner unaware that one of my dinner companions was totally creeped by eyes. Thanks for the warning (just in case we ever meet for fish and chips).

I’d love to meet for fish and chips! Or tea or whatever. (Except I’m rethinking that now…playing with eyes… Hmm.)
