Very nice new flowers. I especially like the funky processing on Valery's second pic

Lovely shots Sury and Valery.
These are some wild Iris growing in the mountains that I was able to capture today.

As usual Flowers thread gets a lot of genuine colours.

Very lovely all with different approaches.

Jeff,those are gorgeous wild Irises. When in the wild, flower species always look more beautiful.

Thanks for sharing,

Nice Irises Jeff. I like the bokeh in the shot and I would have liked a bit more contrast
in the flowers without messing up the bokeh.

Thanks Yildiz and Sury.

Sury, the flowers in reality were quite pale with a low contrast in the coloring. I even turned down the clarity a tad because the shot seemed a bit harsh to me, but as they say, each to their own.

[Birma]

Beautiful Irises.

Went back to Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens but this time with a friend that is taking to photography. Didn't take that many shots but morning light and a shallow DOF always makes for some fun.

Nice set JB. Especially the first one is my favorite.

Hi JBTaylor; : )

The light in the first one really works for the blossom. I like the subtle light and colours in the others as well. Mornings are good times to shoot always.

Thanks for sharing,
