Atop Iris

It's iris season around here. Our gardens are loaded. I'm in heaven. Every morning, as I head off to work, I get to dwell for a few moments on these purples, reds, yellows and whites. I'm not a floral specialist to any degree, but I think the Iris might be the perfect flower. Let's put it this way, as far as I'm concerned, it is. There you have it. It's official now. Now you can go about the rest of your hectic day and not worry about this. You're welcome!

  8. If that's not the perfect flower it is darn close. That is a fantastic shot.

  9. Some people stop to smell the roses; you stop to shoot a perfect magenta and white iris. Works for me! ;-)
