Yellow-Leaved Iris: The 90th Flower of Spring & Summer!
(By the way, the latest news about Lucky's Pond is my third picture tonight, and picture two shows the frogs that are living at the pond! :)
I love irises and their interesting shaped petals, but when it comes to photographing the small wild ones that grow here on our property, they are a real pain. They grow low to the ground and are always in the middle of their sword-shaped leaves with lots of other plants around them. In short, they are quite a challenge. I suppose I could just PICK one and turn it into a studio shot, but I don't want to do that. So, in the case of this flower, I did some heavy Photoshop work to separate the flower from the background and also used selective color. I hope you like the result!
The Yellow-Leaved Iris is native in the Pacific Northwest from midwest and southern Oregon to northern California. On our property they are a cream color with yellow, but they can also be pale yellow as well, with butter yellow in the centers of each petal and lavender veining.
If you would like to know more about irises, Wiki has a nice page here: Wiki: Iris
I've uploaded two other pictures today and I hope you'll visit them too!
Thanks to all of you who have visited and have left comments and favorites! I try to go to all of your pages within a day or two and is a highlight for me to see your beautiful photography! :)
