~ IN THE SHADOWS ~

Uploaded: May 06, 2010

Description

In one of the many flower gardens
at a local park, this lone iris
was in the shadows of a big shade
tree. While dancing in the Kansas
breeze, it moved into the light
and illuminated its beautiful petals.
I didn't adjust lighting much, but
I did convert to B&W.

HAVE A TERRIFIC DAY!!!

I love the many colors of iris but this is so very striking in black and white. Well done, Jeana. Love the tight framing. #8598804
