Description

The answer is, "No! Of course not!" Sometimes the stars all line up and you get something you never intended! This is NOT a composite image. Ann was standing a little bit away from me, in the next row over, bending down to read a tag. That's her hand and forearm you see. She's actually not very close to this flower at all. The stem on the iris must be off to the left and in back of the bloom. Makes it look like this blossom is floating. I SWEAR I did nothing to create this effect! Of course I could have done a plain background, made this more artistic and less snap-shot-like. (It's such a great flower, I may yet do that!) But I have a million photos of beautiful flowers. I couldn't pass this up.
