Iris on a Sunday

Do beautiful things need a reason to share? Here's Iris on a Sunday. Enjoy.


- Some experimentation shots in my backyard. These two shots are in broad daylight with flash and a black backdrop. It seems to me black background is too formal, no?

- My model started getting hot, so he asked for the sprayer.

- ...and got a nice cool shower.

- Apparently I can't do anything right, Iris, went to his quarters to relax and soak in some rays.

- In the end, he came down peacefully with the help of a ladder.



Edit: Two more I forgot to post previously

Beautiful photography! The black is a nice background, but I prefer something a bit more naturalesque. How about just the beautiful trees in the background, or the sky?
 
Nice photos as usual.;)

That last photo is great.:) If you were in it at the bottom, and looking up, that would make a hilarious caption contest.:D
 
Cool photos - I love the misting one and the one up the tree!! I've got a tree in my garden that I know Lily would love, but I'd never be able to reach her to get her down again!!
 
Great photos!!!!! What a nice looking panther........you got some great shots of him!
 
I saw the pic of Iris in the tree and almost had a panic attack. If one of mine for that far up I would be in deep trouble. Glad you were able to get him down. He surely is a good looking man.
 
Thank you all. I really appreciate your comments.

Added two more photos to the thread.

BoySergeant: I also do like the natural foliage in the background, however; there enough foliage to show up in the photos as green. The green/yellow background you see in some of the photos are the grass. Hopefully, in a couple weeks, it will be a nice green background :)

Malicious: Absolutely. I should have taken the tripod out too. I may execute on that idea in the upcoming days.
 
Wow! What nice photos!!!!!! I can't pick a favorite.....I love them all! You have a beautiful panther!
 
those are really nice pictures. i like the black backdrop. i think it looks alot better and makes a great contrast for his colors!
 
I think the last two photos are awesome!
BTW I too would worry about my chameleon being so far off the ground.
