Show me your eyes

[Norachan]

Wow, they're like a mirror image of each other, aren't they?

@Verna davies  ah, yes must have been! Amazingly similar.

Lily has eyes that look like pools you could swim down into...pools of liquid Gold!

Beautiful cats @nikki4526  Is Mamasan the mother of the other two?

Since there were a few questions about Lucy's eye color, here is another pic from the same session captured a few seconds before the prior image of Sweet Lucy Blue Eyes.  The photo below is pretty much straight out of the camera - the eyes are as captured.  I wish I could figure out how to produce the blue eyes on demand.

Lucy must be part Siamese. What beautiful eyes!

It looks like something blue is being reflected onto your cat. Look at the blue fur and whiskers and the blue n the background so it is no wonder that the yes reflect it also.

Thanks. I had not considered a reflection.  There is a pale blue oriental rug in the dinning room where I made the picture. I shoot in that room a lot and have never previously caught blue eyes that intense on either Archie or Lucy.  But a reflection seems like a likely candidate.

I sometimes get a similar sort of blue with photographs of Mouse taken in low, natural light.  His eyes are green so they don't show blue but his 'blue' grey fur will take a very different tone which shows it off beautifully as has happened with Lucy.   I don't have much blue at all in my apartment and it does seem to result from certain light conditions.   Of course, may not be the same cause with Lucy, but natural light can be really interesting when taking photographs, and come out differently with different cameras and lenses too.

Some years back, we shared our home with a grey kitty named Martel (after the cognac).  He was similar in color to Mouse.  His fur reflected everything - such a beautiful effect.  We should have called him chameleon. :-)

Fuzzy was turning his head from left to right and somehow I managed to get this during the split second he was looking right at the camera!
