Remember, no photos in comments and no notes, please.

And forgive me for not being able to visit much. It will be a while before I can resume spending as much time on Flickr as I used to and want to.

Iris at Ladew Gardens

IRIS.. "hoy es día más importante del resto de mi vida" los demás vendrán o no... este lo estoy viviendo.

Iris takes its name from the Greek word for rainbow, referring to the wide variety of flower colors found among the many species.

Close up of the Iris my grandmother bred. I love the details on these.

Iris de la Baie Bretagne

Flower from Exhibition of Irises -2010

I love my Iris but I hate how fast they come and go. And they are a fair amount of work.

Taking a little break from all of the rodeo pictures. We have a lot of iris in bloom now, and I think that this is one of the prettiest varieties. Sadly I don't remember the name.

Strobist info: One SB600 in a Honl snoot camera left for side lighting to show shadows and textures, and another SB600 in a softbox at camera right for fill light. Both strobes in manual mode triggered by the pop up flash on my D90 in commander mode.

Other plants and flowers that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set. In the description, I list resources that I've used to learn how to light with off camera flash. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/...

Two of these white beauties on a stalk at one time is a treat.

This will be the last of the iris pics for a while. The calla lilies are about to bloom!
