"In your neat garden iris grows Bright yellow, mauve - in stately rows. This one you’ve picked’s a lovely thing, I know it brightens up our spring. But in the forest, springtime’s child, A purple iris growing wild, Can melt my heart as spring melts snow, It’s spoilt me for the sort you grow!" - Jude, Wild Iris = Peace and happiness to all who venture here. Dwight.

Nice photo Dwight and also the poem. So clear and the colors are perfect. You don't post often, but when you do it is really good. The proof is in this photo.

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"

To see the world in a grain of sand, and heaven in a wildflower, to hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour. - William Blake
