  In this paper, we consider a six parameter family of affine Segre surfaces
embedded in $\mathbb C^6$. For generic values of the parameters, this family is
associated to the $q$-difference sixth Painlev\'e equation. We show that
different limiting forms of this family give Segre surfaces that are isomorphic
as affine varieties to the the monodromy manifolds of each Painlev\'e
differential equation.
