There are dark shadows on the earth, but its lights are stronger in the contrast.
—Charles Dickens
Deep in their roots, all flowers keep the light. —Theodore Roethke

Stunning.
How awesome. Love the quotes and the picture is gorgeous. 🙂
Just beautiful, both the light and the composition.
Cee, Jessica, Marie, thank you for your kind comments.
You’re welcome. 🙂
Amazing shot, Bill!
Thanks, Stefano. The garden is becoming better each day now. Purple iris will appear soon, with the yellow.
That’s beautiful Bill – some great macro photography!
Thanks, Jude. I’m using a “new” camera, micro 4/3 format; it has a articulated screen for hard-to-get places where your neck can’t. An old manual focus lens and nice light, all we can ask for!
It certainly did a lovely job 🙂
Bill, this is a marvelous photo. The light and the bits of pollen are unbeatable. Kudos!

I like the light in this photo.
oh…now that is just one incredible photograph there, kiddo. is that pollen dust on the petal, or light?
That’s mostly light, maybe a little pollen added; the iris didn’t show much of that. Glad you liked it!
well, cool…light, pollen…all good
Awesome image.
