'I is for ...'
IRIS
It's just past midnight on Tuesday night, so strictly speaking it is now Wednesday, and as I am out for th entire day tomorrow I am posting now. I may be a little late getting around to checking out all your ABC posts this week, but I will get there!!
I struggled big time for this weeks letter!!!
As of yesterday, the only option I could think of was 'Injured Footballer' after snapping a well bandaged head following a clash during the match on Sunday last weekend.
After a bit more thought, I have decided to go with a double iris ... two for the price of one so-to-speak, how lucky are you?
This is a shot I took in the studio last year whilst at college. I love the bright colours and the detail in the petals.
However, I did promise myself that I wouldn't use old photo's, that I would shoot specifically with the weekly letters in mind, and so I took another shot of an iris yesterday. 
This is my eldest daughters eye, and I took it whilst we were visiting Dover Castle yesterday. We were sat on a bench just outside the Keep, and if you look closely, not only can you see my reflection holding the camera, but you can see one of the turrets of part of the castle.

I love your ABC "I" post! Very original. I couldn't see you or the turrets but I still enjoyed the pictures and post.
2 beautiful eyes. I love the color of her yes, I can see you in them!
What beautifully coloured eyes your daughter has and the Iris flower is gorgeous. A great "I" post. :o)
Wow. I love the second one Ali. And I agree with Ruth...they're an amazing colour!
I couldn't see the turret. Maybe it's fallen down over night!
nice I (*eye)...
i myself been scratching my head round this one...
Oooooooooooooooooh aren't we the lucky ones, 2 for the price of one.
Hey you stole my theme! Just kidding. That is a real nice flower shot and a nice twist with the other Iris.
Happy ABC Wednesday. Have a great one.
YOur daughter has beautiful eyes...iris and all!!! what a uniqui idea!!
Love your two Irisis - what a great idea!
Two great pics there with great colour rendition, nice close up of your daughters iris, nice colour too.
Very clever !
Pity your daughter wasn't called Iris then it would have made 3 eyes. Great picture and she has truly stunning eyes.
Nices pics - the irises I photographed recently were not very photogenic.
Very beautiful eyes.
I couldn't think of anything either for "I" until the last minute. Your eye picture is brilliant.
Clever Ali. It was hard to know what to do for the letter I.
Nice clear shot of your daughters eye., I mean iris...
Eyes always come out red when I take pics. LOL.
smart idea and nice pics:)
Hi Ali! What a great photo duo!
I've lost count of my frustrating efforts to photograph reflective surfaces and found my annoying image on the subject - in this instance, it was a moment of brilliance. :)
Great photographs. It's years since I've been to Dover Castle - 33 to be exact!
great shots ... your girl has outstanding eyes
Hope you are feeling better!
It is raining here today!
Splendid photo and what a memory you and your daughter made.
I do hope that you are feeling much better today.
Love these little fishing boats. I often wonder where the names all come from. I have started photographing boat names and as soon as I have a good selection will blog them

Ali, that shot of your daughter's eye is fantastic. I can't stop looking at it. PS: I've caught up with my "I" and "J" photos.
