That is amazing how much detail you can get out of that camera. And the focus is spot on as well. It certainly adds another dimension to photography. Photo is a different take on an Iris and for me it seems to have an other worldly look to it, like a nebulae. I like the nice soft colors and sharpness. ---

David, this is a nice closeup look of an Iris. So much here to enjoy, with all the shapes, lines, and shades of colors. I especially like how the image is split with the yellows on one side, and the purples on the other. The crop works for me. ---

David, the crop stands up very well and it does a fine job of focusing attention on the details in the iris. The mix of colors looks good also. As I said in a comment earlier about a different iris image, I think I have this same iris, now I’m going to have to spend some time getting up close and personal… ---

David: Really good choice on the crop as you eliminated stuff that doesn’t really matter and brought attention to what does. Superb image. \>=))\> ---

Yes, I love the cropped image too. Sure looks like an alien landscape with rolling terrain, rough rock/hills, and strange trees. Your title is great!
