Off to celebrate my Mom's 93rd birthday in Interlochen, MI, then wander about in God's Country (northern Michigan) with camera in hand. It turns out that Iris are my mother's favorite flower so this is a fitting image to leave behind while I'm gone.

Thanks roder10. My two sisters are up there also, so it will be a mini-reunion of sorts.

A real beauty, Bob, and great use of processing. Is this Glow or Neon?

Thanks Indi. They're such a delicate flower to begin with it would have been a shame to apply a heavy-handed approach.

Thanks Randy. It's Topaz Glow, blended in Soft Light mode. I try to get an effect where the glow seems to emanating from within the flower.

Thanks James. I really liked the delicate colors of this particular species .... it almost looks translucent with the rain drops. I'll do my best to return in one piece with a buffer full of photos.
