Love the backlighting. Very dramatic. Unique view of the coming out of the bud.

I really like the light on this, the rimming of the leaf and the delicate details it reveals. An unusual composition that works really nicely.

Nice capture here with the backlighting which was? Just curious. Few points...
I'd like to see a little more brightness to the tip of the iris that goes to the upper right corner. That may result in bringing out a little detail vs simply going dark.
Same issue with the (soon to be) flowering portion of the iris, the section that goes straight up. Just a little more light that would add some interest with the detail that would come through.
Love the transparency/reflection that is in the image.
Thanks for sharing this!!
