These yellow ones are the first of the irises to bloom around the Innovation Place pond. The sprinklers run early in the morning so the flowers are shining with water droplets when I arrive. Hard to resist taking a few photos :-)
The flowers are beautiful as a whole, but I also love some of the details.
And from unusual angles, like straight above.
The normal way to take macro (closeup) photos with a small cameras like the ZS100 is at wide angle and very close. But the wide angle takes in a lot of background. Sometimes that's good, but sometimes it's distracting. The ZS100 will actually focus reasonably close with the lens zoomed to the maximum telephoto. With the narrower angle of view, you can often get a less distracting background. That's what I did for the first shot above. (The rest were wide angle closeups.)
