Probably just a day before full bloom, but shot it anyway, with just the Iris stalk in focus. The dappled background is the lake.

Beautiful color contrasts, and so sharp without being over sharp. I really like the background contrast, really grabs your attention. Tigs♥ =^..^=

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

The lake as a background is really nice and the iris is a beauty.
A pleasure to view Doug.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
