Backlit Japanese Iris Canvas
Backlit Japanese Iris Canvas
The strong backlighting on the Japanese Iris creates a soft blue light and illuminates the tiny grooves that line each petal.
Petal Portraits canvas prints are printed on a semi-gloss canvas, chosen to enhance the vibrant colors of the flowers. They are available in a variety of sizes and are shipped to you in a tube with extra large canvas borders so you can get it mounted for hanging.
Please note that the mockup shown here may not reflect the final cropping required for the size you choose. Canvas will cause the image to appear softer. Please email us if you want a different size than what is listed or if you need more information about what a specific size will look like. Also, please contact us directly at Bruce@petalportraits.com if you need an additional price for stretching and mounting the canvas, and shipping to you already on a frame.
The first flower that I photographed with my macro lens was a Bearded Iris. It was in our Arizona garden, the sun low in the East in the hush of the morning before the Spring breezes moved in off the desert.
What I saw through the lens amazed me! This incredibly complex flower was a joy to behold even from a distance, but as I focused deeper and deeper into the interior of the Iris, I was amazed at the many chambers found there among the petals. As the rising sun’s rays snuck into each one of these chambers, they seemed to explode with light. I watched in awe as a thin ray of sun touched the tips of the beard, and I could almost sense their awakened joy. I then realized that the Light had become as much a part of this iris as any part I could touch with my fingers.
