Iris...such an amazing flower

The iris is such a beautiful flower...and sort of complicated when you look at it.  I can never quite capture it like I want to.

I agree, it is complicated, nothing like your ordinary daisy. You have done a great job of showing us the inside story!

This shot does a good job of capturing the heart of an Iris. Mind have yet to bloom.

They are beautiful with many facets to them. I am glad to hear someone besides me say "I can't capture it they way I wanted". That's my sad story. You did good. MB

This is beautiful! I really like irises, but the only ones I can grow here are our wild ones. My mother used to grow many, many different varieties.

Beautiful! I have several purple and some white blooming right now. I think they are one of my favorite flowers. I love all the different colors.
