Color and sharpness is good. The BG white spots make it a little too busy, and the bloom in the upper right is distracting.
Really like the yellow and white details.
The colour impact of this vivid blue iris catches the viewer's attention Pat. Agree with Robert about the portion of iris on the top right being distracting - cropping (or cloning) this out would improve composition.
Have to agree with the other comments. The color and detail of the irises are outstanding but the background is too busy. Believe me I know. I am the king of busy backgrounds! ;)
Thanks for the feedback guys. I appreciate your help and comments.. only replying now as I have been off on a wildfllower birding adventure for the weekend.. I cropped the right and cloned out a bit of the bg.
