These irises were a very deep purple and even prettier in sunlight than they had appeared the night before.

I saw a lot of irises when out on an evening walk with Sahraa so decided to go get some pictures of them the next day, when there was more light (and when I had a camera). Some of them had looked better the night before, but they were still beautiful. I like irises so much, I went out again and scoured the neighborhood for more.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.
