Droopy iris

Sahraa and I had just gotten back home from a walk in the rain when I saw this iris in our backyard had bloomed. Too much trouble to get my camera inside, so my iPhone had to do.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

other sizes: small medium large original auto

A gorgeous iris in those shades of blue, and the rain drops are an added bonus.

Even the flowers are tired of house arrest. ~V~

The soft lighting in the rain really accentuates the beautiful colour.
