 I have no idea what this is, but we had a dozen or so in the backyard - unfortunately this is one of two that survived Riley's inquisition. Here's the other one which is seen hiding from the horror that befell her comrades...


And here's another wider view of this one...

I just love green and purple together...and all that silky bokeh is the icing on the cake.

Great colours - I wonder if a border would help 'contain' the shot ?

ps - when Riley aka 'The Grand Inquisitor' worked over the other plants did they 'fess up to anything ?

I love irises, and this is a beaut. It's good how you got the stripes in focus with such a narrow DOF.

I think that is an iris of some kind. I love the tiger stripey thingies. :~)

This seems quite a departure for you - a flower. It's an iris of some sort.

Nobody expects Riley's Inquisition. Amongst his weaponry are such diverse elements as: fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, and an almost fanatical devotion to pulling petals off flowers....
