    A couple of Quick shots on my way to the store.

    I don’t know the name of this one.

    A differant Iris.

    The first shot is very nice, could be a bit sharper I think, I sometimes lasso around the end of sepals and sharpen up a bit.

    The second could be a great photo, but there is something weird going on imho. The flower doesn’t sit well with the background as if its oversharpened, but I thought the same with one of my own photos which came unsharpened from the camera, so it may be the the lens is just a bit too good at isolating the foreground. Am I making sense, I don’t know.
    And there are rectangles/verticals all along the left, some cloning perhaps that needs to be feathered in a bit.

    I hope this helps,

    Thanks for the tip Martin.
    It was a very bright day And the Iris was a stand alone about twenty feet in front of this background which I think could be why it appears the way it does.
    I see what you are talking about with the cloneing in the background. well spoted, Opps :oops: I should hace paid more attn. to what I was doing there.

    The first one might be a columbine, aka Aquilegia perhaps. Is it a bit soft?
