Spring is coming 7

No, definitely not a native, but I always know Spring is close by when my Iris starts to flower. I thought this one looked pretty after a little shower of rain.

Looks like this was taken in early morning. I love early morning light! So crisp and clean. Great shot!

Me either but I couldn't put my camera in the picture and take a picture of it also...it's like having your cake and eating it too...doesn't work. ;)

Re: comment--that's funny your father thought that--when I started fencing (um, 20+ years ago) it was totally a man's sport. Let's just say most of the guys in the class didn't like fencing with a girl (or being beat by one!) It was really tough!
This is a beautiful photo--I love the droplets of rain on this flower. The colours are really pretty

It's beautiful Robin, I love the drops on it! We have these too, but ours aren't flowering yet, you are definitely a couple of weeks ahead of us :-)

A lovely picture and a lovely flower. It is so strange for me to think about spring now here, where it is stil Summer and hot, and autum, (very short one) will come in a month or a mont and a half.

Wow, what a photo! Those raindrops look like crystals. Thanks for letting me know about the red lace knitting photo - did it really make it onto the popular page? How exciting!

Thank you, Robin!
I love this picture! I am so jealous that your spring and all the flowers are just starting. Ours are ending.

Very nice Robin. Irises are my favorite Spring flower!

re: wow! thank you....i had no idea it was on the popular page...no wonder i kept getting all these comments...well now that just made my day! thanks for letting me know. :)

Beautiful photo, Robin. Such an exotic looking iris. The lighting, colors and the raindrops make it look so fresh ~

Robin, this is gorgeous!!!! I love this shot - definitely a fave!

I saw your comment on my tooth fairy pillow... left a reply, but I'm never sure if people see them, so here it is again :)

Haha - Robin, I know, $3 is a lot compared to the $0.50 or $0.75 I got as a kid! But its a lot less than the tooth fairy brought her for her first tooth! A friend told her that the tooth fairy left him a note that she brings you the same number of dollars for your first tooth as your age when you lose it! And sure enough, she got $7 for her first tooth that she lost on her 7th birthday! I guess that after the 1st tooth, the tooth fairy has to cut back. I think this tooth had a high price tag because of all that she went through to lose it - not sure how much the tooth fairy might bring next time, for her 3rd tooth... guess we'll have to see! ;)
