Ori, when you get pictures of iris, I fall in love, I love Iris so much! This is such a nice species, incredible where it grows, it is so dry! Here, most iris grow in wet places or very humid soil. Thank you, very nice work, I appreciate each and every picture of yours.

Hi Ori,

These desert Iris never fail to amaze me. Such a huge flower on minimal foliage, it's quite an incredible adaptation. And a really nice photo of it too. I like that you can see the plant's environment so well. You've taken advantage of the G10's increased depth of field due to its very short focal length due to its design. A very sharp image, as would be expected from that camera combined with your photography skills.

Thanks,
John

je ne connaissais pas ces iris! Quels pétales!
