Nice lighting, position and great result.
Jim,
I was trying to view the exif on this image but it was incomplete with my exif viewer. Do you mind sharing your settings?
The BG bothers me a bit. It appears to me that you may have sharpened the background as well rather than just the iris? It is a sharp OOF not a soft OOF. I cannot think of a better way to put it.

A well done piece
Jim...how beautiful...you got the colours of this one very well and the angle too. Even without that extra stem on the right, it will still be more beautiful...Mine finished flowering for this year...
Nice coloured flower Jim I would clone the extra stem though as it distracts .
Very nice. I agree with Marie that the background is a bit distracting, but it isn't clear to me exactly what is causing this. It is buy, and things look almost doubled.
Thanks all for the feedback and comments. I'm the first one to admit my PP skills are not that great.
Love the colour; agree about loosing the extra stem.
