During my time to myself yesterday, I stopped at Stotts Garden, and even though most of their Iris's are done, there were still enough to shoot, and enjoy.

Today was a 12 hour day, and it will be a long one tomorrow, as well, I held up okay today but who knows how I'll feel at the end of the day tomorrow? :)

Mind you I'm not complaining, I can always use the o/t, and there are those who don't even have a job. :(

Thank you for your comments my friends.

The color of the foofy is gorgeous, and so is the background. Excellent clarity, too. Excellent job with this one, Sandi.

What a unusual Iris, I don't think I've seen one with such frilly ends and what a heavenly shade of purple after a long 12 hour day I'm glad you still had time to visit the garden and unwind surrounded in the quiet beauty of nature. Take it easy Sandi and don't work yourself to death.

I like this color of Iris. I knew a girl named Iris that could never be pleased. She was blue most of the time like this one. :)

Absolutely beautiful, and perfectly composed and presented.Love the shallow depth with all the great detail and softness of light to compliment the delicate intricacies of each petal.

A beauty she is Sandi. Hold that beauty in your heart and try to find peace within on these long work days. So very hard on a person they are....

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. . . . . . . . . .. . . .
