Friendship Peony

The first peony bud to open this season, on a plant given to me by friends Cindy and Kurt. Looks like it could be "Pink Parfait" - very light pink center with a pink cup. A good part of my garden started in theirs, iris, hibiscus, resurrection lilies, daylilies, and hostas. The iris are blooming, too, deep purple crayons bursting into iris fireworks.


I used live view and an extension tube on this shot. Live view made it much easier to see what was in focus and to get it sharp as possible. Love the soft pinks and early morning dew.
