Tip-toeing through the...Wild Iris?

Ok, so not quite accurate as the saying goes. But a brilliant day out with Annette and Rose...

No idea what this is. Purty, though, ain't it?

These last 2 are Annette's 5 year old daughter, Rose, taking the time to stop and smell the Iris. We had a blast playing around in this field.

Thanks for looking!
 
Beautiful photos Chris.... I need a camera that captures colors accurately like that...
Rose is beautiful too, her hair goes great with the color of the Iris..

I think the common name for that first flower is bleeding hearts.. But I am not sure...
 
Yep, the plant with the pink flowers is Dicentra, called bleeding hearts, dutchman's trousers, lyre flower!
 
Everyone already gave you the name of the 1st flower. I have seen it as a wildflower or naturalized-gone-wild in the Pacific Northwest.
 
Chris, your pictures are always stunning, and Rose is absolutely darling! She sure is pretty. My youngest daughter just turned 5.
 
That first flower you photographed is... wait for it... Bleeding Heart. :rolleyes:
The scientific name is Dicentra Spectabilis.

Yea, I have a very special spot in my heart for Bleeding Heart, cause my Dad grew them at our home in Madison when I was a kid. Great shots, I have some very similar Marco shots of Bleeding Heart myself!!

Great shots of Rose, you really captured the forever young heart and love of a child. Great job!
