Falling into the swamp lined with duck weed this stem of purple Iris created a colorful reflection.

Depending on where I stood the water either reflected the sky or the green fronds of the standing patch of iris.

A closer look at the stem reveals flowers in various stages of bloom.

This last image was taken about an hour later from about the same spot as the first one above, with the sun no longer directly on the flower.

I love irises and the gorgeous reflections are a real bonus.
Me, too, and they seem to be extra vivid this year.
These are very beautiful shots!
Thank you, Anne, glad that you liked them and thanks for stopping by!
These reflections are such a rich, deep purple! And I love the color of the water
That was a marvelous spot where the pieces came together just right for color and reflection. Glad that you enjoyed the combo.
Yes!
