This is about life in my gardens. One is an acre on a hillside in Laguna Beach, California and the other is an acre in San Juan Capistrano, California.

Backlit
While walking around through the garden this evening, with my camera in one hand and a glass of wine in the other, I was stopped in my tracks by this brilliant iris that had just opened up for the first time. I was able to get this photo of the setting sun shining through the petals, without spilling a drop of wine!
I am traveling right now, but when I get home I will try to find the name of this iris. I used to label them all whenever I planted one, but these days I am lucky just to get them in the ground!
