    Around the House

    This catapillar met and unfortunate death after the photo shoot....A plastic pail full of sidewalk chalk fell out of toddler baring hands and squashed it. (may s/he rest in peace)

    your iris pics are nice .... looks like they are all coming into bloom...

    I haven't decided if I like shooting them like you did in the 3rd shot ... or so you can see the middle of the flower ...

    like i did in this shot here ...

    Thank you AmberC..

    I was going to shoot the Iris from the top but they were not fully open yet, and I thought also where its just one color it would just end up looking like a blob of lavender.
    Ill try that when they open fully.

    I wasn't meaning shooting from the top ... I meant turning so that your shooting the drooping petal straight on ... instead of the petal that is still standing straight up ...
    I have yet to decide which is better ...

    I am no flower guru ... but from what I understand an Iris is at full bloom when 3 petals are standing up and 3 petals are down ???

    I agree that shooting from the top will just be a blob of color ... I think they need to be shot from the side just which is a better view ?? your shot from the side shooting straight on the petal standing up and seeing 2 petals drooping ? or my shot shooting the drooping petal straight on and seeing the inside of the flower and 2 petals standing up ???
