I got up early to meet a friend at the Schreiner's iris garden this morning. I've been using my new rf 100-400 mm lens but wasn't sure I'd like using it over my lensbaby lenses or my macro but I am pretty happy.
This is an Iris I cross-pollinated, named for my wife Dawn. It is a cross between a purple iris and a chocolate iris. Oh, this is the first bloom and there are two more to come! From A Place in My Garden

I guess made by snails. For one, sick moment, I thought,
"Hey, I could repair those with Photoshop!"

Oh, get ready... it's the time of year when I will have my camera deep in the genitalia of every bloom in my path.
I don't care how typical, how pedestrian, how 'geez, another flower close-up"... I love them, I love taking them and I will not make excuses for posting them. Winter was too damned long and I am going to celebrate every blossom I can capture.
So there.
