Thank you. I agree, it's just our town is badly in need of a bit of a lift, we have been bypassed by the highway & we need something nice in the town to attract holiday makers. Though, I must admit nothing as grand as your skyscraper. #5552603Su Sana E. P February 27, 2008

Thank you very much. #6141829Dennis Gay July 13, 2008
G'day Chris,Well spotted and nicely photographed, this Iris stands out so well from its well muted and darkened natural background.
You have chosen a very good point of view to better display the lovely mauve centre of the flower, your focus is nice and crisp, the contrast is most pleasing and the water drops are like a smattering of little diamonds over the subject.
Lovely work!
