Iris

I was crawling around on my belly for half an hour in the neighbor's yard waiting to get this photo.  The sun briefly popped through the clouds, then would have to wait again for the next period of sun filtering through the tree overhead.  They weren't home, but if they were home they would not have been surprised to see me crawling on their lawn.  It's nice when neighbors know your quirks!

Photographer's notes:  85mm portrait lens works nicely for close ups on anything bigger than the size of a fist. Experimented with apertures, and in my opinion f4 is the best for depth of field for this type photo.
