Wonderful shot Tom. I love all of this, the color and the shades.

This needs to be viewed large to be appreciated!

Lovely image Tom - is it taken with the new Canon RF 100mm macro?

A great shot of this iris both compositionally, and also by the methods used to isolate it from the background. Very well done.

I love the soft glowing feel of this-the background colors just melt into the main subject in such a pleasing way.
