Larry: Beautiful bloom superbly captured. I like that yu got both beards sharp with this POV. I also like the not quite black mottled BG. >=))>

A beautiful job on this Iris, Larry. Gorgeous lighting and sharp all the way through. I do find myself wishing the stem weren’t cut off quite so high.

Gorgeous Iris Larry. Your DOF choice is spot on and the water droplets on the flower are an added bonus!

Larry I love the stark light contrasts that you controlled in an excellent way. Also the lightness and transparencies of the petals are beautiful. I like the unusual background too. Have you tried a shorter format?
