Iris in Setting Sunlight






“I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers.” Claude Monet



It took everything I had not to post this as soon as I took it! I was getting ready to put my little one in pajamas last night when I looked out the front door and saw this. Poor boy had to wait for me to snap what I could. Within 5 minutes the photo op was gone but I got a few beautiful shots. Now I understand why Monet felt the way he did about flowers.
