With each passing year,
The Iris grows virtually untended
And produces a fantastic model of mating in the flower world, as dresses of magnificent purple are as wedding dresses for mankind.
The closer you look,
The more you see the lure,
The urge to explore,
Bug of macro camera.
In our conditions this Iris should flower in late winter. Yet, to our delight, it now produced two flowers completely out of season.
Taken Friday evening on a photographic stroll through the neighborhood with Beefy.
These gorgeous twin irises were just crying out for selective colouring!
Hope you are all having a super weekend!

This was taken in the same area where I saw all of the dandelions. I was trying to find one that was in the sun because most of the flowers in the shade of the pine trees in the area. My daughter walked down the side of the mountain a little ways and called me over. She said she found some that were in the sun and had really nice color. This is my favorite from my shots. Enjoy!
