Creeping Around the Neighbor's Yard

I wish they still lived her so Kay could tell me - again - what these are called. They seem to be flourishing even though the house has been empty nearly 2 years. Did fairly well with the 50mm.

Beautiful! It looks to be some sort of Iris. Great focus! Brings out all the textures and the black background is super!

[Islandgirl]

Looks like an Iris, and very nice on black!
Did you get a new lens?

[Milanie]

@radiogirl No, I was messing with the 50mm for my bigger (heavier) camera - remember it every six months or so and it's not heavy. Should get my SX60 this week and I'll see how that goes. Hope not too much different.
