A really great picture of the Iris. It's a really difficult colour to paint, lol, I should know because I had a go ..whew. You've caught the delicate 'featheryness ' of the petals.Love that! :>) V

I LOVE Irises. They bring back memories of my grandfather's flower garden which featured a wide variety of these marvelous plants. Lovely photography with all the detail. V
