Fun to pretend, isn't it! This Iris has the wing span of Boeing's new commercail aircraft, the largest yet! So fasten your seat belts and we will be air-borne shortly! We will reach your dreamiest destination ever! How about Bali? Bali is one of the seventeen thousands islands that make up the country of Indonesia, sound good? There goes my imagination again, and smiling with pleasure! Here we go!!! Kind of silly perhaps, but fun! Marilyn

The color of the iris against the blue of the sky is just stunning Marilyn. I think I like your comment even more :)
You are so correct..this has a tremendous 'wingspan', doesn't' it? What a unique capture you have done to accentuate the delicacy of the petals of the gorgeous Iris flower. Thank you for sharing this with us :~)

This is a feast for the eyes. Stunningly beautiful. I agree with Cindy, you do bring them to life and this one is living on my desktop now :)

I used to be a gold-digger, but it didn't pan out.

Nice composition and design. The highlights are a little overexposed on the right. Nice capture.
