Description

I am always fascinated by the vein-like pattern on the petals of Iris versicolor. This cultivar, 'Mint Fresh' enchants with a strong pink colour, which turns into a rich yellow with seductive markings on the inside. This colour combination formed a beautiful contrast to the wall of my house, in the garden, which was illuminated by the last light of an early summer’s evening.

The composition of the picture in a square frame creates an intimacy, in which the flower leans out of the frame towards the beholder. This shot is comprised of three images, selectively focus stacked together.
