I spotted these irises next door and was impressed with this one because of the low back lit lighting. I know I recently posted one of mine, but I couldn't pass this one up.
Beautiful flower and light, the dark background really shows it off

Very nice, almost glowing colors. The stark black background makes the subject jump out.

Beautiful!! I love your use of bright sunlight on the iris against the dark background!! This reminds me of a dancer in the spotlight - lovely shot, Don!

Beautiful! I don't think I was aware that irises have so many colors in them or else you've got different ones up there than we have.

I love this shot!!! On the day that I posted an iris shot, Joyce wrote in her comment for me to be sure and see yours. I'm home now and clicking back, and I see why she directed me to your shot.
