This was taken at the Alaska Native Heritage Center in Anchorage, Alaska. These grow all over the place. At my daughters home these grow wild.

Mrs C-13 bought some flowers today. I was looking for something to photograph. Sorted :-)

First blooms ever

Some pristine Iris flowers seen at the weekend on a sunny summer afternoon.

It's still just the start of the iris season here. Here are some freshly washed by the rain.

Propogated from bulbs taken from my Mother's yard years ago.

Only Iris left in that patch. Blooms one day.

First botanicals with new camera. I think I'm smitten. PROJECT365 - #95 - 04092013

Tis the season in Alaska for flowers. May as well take advantage of the idea...

Taken at Argyle Acres on 04-26-08. I'll try to add the variety as I have time.

These photos are older than the ones with lilies and roses. Forgot to put them up before. Most of the irises are gone already.

Lens: Minolta MD Tele Rokkor-X 135mm f/2.8.
