If an iris could dress for a carnival ... {& I mean that in the nicest possible way} ... this would be it: dressed for the gala affair in all her glorious finery ; wow, she is big & cheery! :)))

Bruce, Fantastic floral photo with remarkable details showing off the pedals of this iris. Great clarity on the flower as you can see the colors so vividly and the various lines in the pedals so distinctly. Great use of the sun to brighten up certain sections and cast a shadow on other parts. Excellent photo, voted, google and FB promoted and congratulations on your Mega Feature in the Wisconsin Flowers and Scenery group
