“Share the Gifts”

For this particular piece my focus was flowers; Iris’s are one of my favorite.   Last summer, as a thoughtful gift, my husband told me to grab my camera and took me to an Iris farm where thousands of colored petals, blanketed a very large area.   I took many pictures of the beauties in all their grandeur; so many colors, and so many to pick from. 

The farmer of these irises didn’t allow us to leave without giving us quite a few bagfuls of bulbs.  These bulbs are now growing in the flower gardens of both our mother’s- share the gifts.
