Title: Gentle Rain - iris, Dedicated to Diane (rainbow)
Series: Cloud Burst - Second photograph of three
Location: My kitchen studio
Date: May 1, 2007
Image: N04015M2c
Camera: Nikon D70, Full Frame, natural daylight w/fill card
Commentary: Earlier today during an email exchange, I learned that Diane (AKA: rainbow's Gallery) has been under the weather for the last two weeks, so I would like to dedicate this photograph to her in the hope that it might brighten her day. May her recovery be swift as the magician's hands!
I would also like to extend my sincerest appreciation to all those who stopped my gallery, as I was deeply touch by the overwhelming response to my previous upload especially since it came upon a day that just did not seem in synchronized. It certainly felt like 'chicken soup for the soul'. A special thank you to all.
Thank you for taking the time to look at my work and commenting. Vielen danke das sie die Zeit genommen haben meine Arbeit zu betrachten und darauf zu Kommentieren. Egmont

Egmont, to me the colored ones are the best of your iris series. I have always thought color should play a bigger part in your works, especially when you focus on flowers....a wonderful petal wave and compo make these works really outstanding pieces of art

How could anyone not wake up to this beautiful work of art and not be cheered and healed. It is absolutely lovely Egmont and Diane will love the dedi, and the beauty you have given here. Bravo! It's a true wonder!

Now I get why some of these are called 'bearded'. What a lovely macro. I love the way your composition accentuates all the wonderful abstract shapes within. A most beautiful and thoughtful dedi,Egmont. My very best to you both. -M :^)

Absolutely stunning composition. This is truly magnificent photography Egmont. The flower looks "alive" with so many textures and curves. The colours are perfect (my favourite colour is purple!) and the DOF too. Di will love this, anybody would love it, but Di will be thrilled and she has been very poorly so hopefully this will brighten her day as she brightens ours. Excellent piece of art. xx

The high key approach really compliments this -- making me think of icy windswept tundra, yet also very approachable and immeadiate. Another superb installment in this series and a lovely dedi for Diane.

Oh! Egmont... How beautiful is this.. An exquisite capture of one of your favorite flowers. I thank you so much for this precious gift to me. This is "Chicken soup for my soul". You have lifted my spirits, brightened my whole day. I had further tests today, I am still in so much pain. I need this flower... You have helped me to feel better. The shot is magnificent and I love it. Hugs. Diane.

Absolutely lovely! I'm overwhelmed by this image, as it is breath-taking and leaves on stricken with awe. So gently composed, so very well structured and such careful balance and layout. Far from simple, yet not over-perplexed, and yet still, so magnificent! I love the veins that are exposed on what I would call the "gates" or the opening petals, which invite one within, into a "deeper dimension". Reminds me of fairy wings, in many ways, and brings a smile to my face. A very intricate and special image, my friend... one that is deserving of much more praise and applaud that can be extended through words. I can only tell you that you are a phenomenal artist with great talent!
