What can be more beautiful than the simple elegance of Iris flowers...
I am very happy to present pictures taken for Top Magazin Thüringen last year in the very late and extremely hot Iris season.
Already three years ago I had the chance to meet Mister Bernhard Lesche together with his lovely wife and discovered a hidden treasure of beauty and the natural grace of old and modern Iris breedings. I wanted to do some flower studies and spend some hours in his garden near by Jena/Thuringia. When chief editor Jens Hirsch asked me later to do the pictures for his story I thought immediately of Falk Bauer and his amazing glas insects. The still life was taken with Mamiya RZ on Kodak Portra roll film.
