Description

Another iris from Walsterway's in Maltby, Washington. I swear -- sometimes I don't know where these titles come from! If it doesn't make any sense to you, don't worry.

I wish I could come up with half the titles you do. I look at this shot and think "open up and say ahhhhh". Looks like a fuzzy tongue :)

Tiger, Tiger, burning bright In the forest of the night, What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry? --Quite the question to ask an iris, but I can see the connection, and perhaps a bit of fearful symmetry here and there. Great work, the intensity of it is what strikes me the most. In a sense, this IS the tiger of Irises. Those stripes are almost predatory. Great details...I love the folds and dips, and that "tongue" like some strange and exuberant caterpillar! This is gorgeous!
