Iris

My profile image was the one that had survived my 5 years of blogging which represented my first pen name, named after an A.I. computer in JonnyQuest and also representing the Iris of a camera. But too many people thought it was a girl's name and I eventually gave up the name. I was always nagged by the fact that the image was not created by me and I had lost the link from where I got the image, so I could not credit anyone either. Finally, Google seems to have decided that the tutorial site from where I took the image is important enough to appear early on the search. So, in a search that I do every so often, I found the link again and followed the tutorial to create an Iris.
