I woke up this morning and said 'ok, self, take a picture of something green that is not a plant!'

Look what I went and did:

A Douglas iris, a purple flower with three large petals overlaid by three smaller ones, all purple.

The problem is, I was taking out the garbage, and I realised that this volunteer iris started blooming, and, I mean: Look at this. How can you not take a picture of that?!

It is super-pretty! Personally, I find plants are all "Photograph meeeee!"

Yeah, I wouldn't say no to such a pretty volunteer, too.

It's a gorgeous flower and a gorgeous picture. I love the way the sunshine makes the green leaves glow.
