 Mother nature is a little screwed up this year. It's January 12th, and we have Iris & African Daisy plants flowering. Normally, that doesn't happen until at least March.

This is fantastic. Such rich colors. Great detail. I like how it is offcentered.

That looks almost scary, like some wild animal's mouth. Interesting what you can do with closeups.

Pretty color and I like the detail in front with the surrounding out of focus areas.

Color is wild, as is the plant in general. Well spotted. I wanted the Sigma 105mm but a Tamron 90mm just became available in my neighborhood so I snatched it up. I'll be watching your entries to try to catch up and learn.

I love irises.. we won't see any for at least 4 months so I'll enjoy yours even if they are a few months ahead of schedule. Lovely colors!
