My back yard has a raised bed and three planters and this time of year I put annuals in them, a couple of sweet basil herb plants and the iris bulbs, siberian bearded, transplanted there come out to flower. I shot a few quickly with a tripod on my sony a7 and 30 year old canon fd 70-210mm f 3.5 used lens manually today. They are so pretty. Not intended as nat geo shot quality but they are to me easy to look at and savor...gerber jaguar daisies, african daisies, iris, blue perennials and some other daisies..nothing fancy but bright colors to enjoy when I am out there with the dogs. I try and savor at least one thing every day. Makes for a happier Pearson. I think the blue perennial is called wolf's bane but don't hold me to that.

I do have a fall trip planned, booked, paid for with plane tickets and rental paid for where I am fly fishing catch and release rainbow and brown trout with guide from drift boat on the Colorado and Roaring Fork rivers out of Glenwood Springs not far downstream from where the Colorado headwaters are in Rocky mountain national park. I live for trips like this and have done Montana, wyoming, washington state and now Colorado doing just this. Not much prettier than watching a beautiful rainbow trout slip back into the river when he's given me his or her all. I will have cameras as I did out fishing the Yakima River Canyon fall 2016.

Lance, these are great! I really like #6 when downloaded especially. Iris? Good luck on your fishing trip.
Rocky Mountain National Park is my favorite of all.

thank you one and all. the purple flowers are Siberian bearded iris. i just planted 8 new salmon colored iris in the front from holland to grow for added iris beds. you divide every three years and get lots over time..trade with friends, etc the beard is the tongue-like marking
