Just up the road from my house there are several stands of Iris, while not as large and showy as the ones in my weed patch they are quite lovely.
Yesterday afternoon I braved the steep banks into the road ditch and invited a couple of the Ladies to my "Studio"

All are beautiful, but the first two are seriously wow!!!
Beautiful color and set, Frank.
Detail and color - this set has it all, Frank.
I've got to do some focus stacked pictures of iris. I love them as close up as these, but I usually do one-shot pictures. There's always something out of focus. These are really nice.
Wow Frank!!! The first two especially are stupendous! And I don't think I have ever used that word before.

Thank you Chief
It took a lot of light shine thru the dark petals.
