What's Blooming Now - Irises 04/14/10

I think irises are beautiful photographic subjects. Whether the camera captures from above, from the side or from close-up, their form and color are always wonderful.

I don't know what kind of iris this is. I bought it under the name of Persian Berry, but this is what grew. It was misslabeled. But what a lucky happenstance for me. It is quite beautiful.
