Iris pseudacorus is a flower of wetlands and pond edges found in spring through to early summer.

Rørslett (2013) first showed Iris pseudacorus in ultraviolet(2).

Good, very illustrative examples indeed. The overall lighting is exemplary. Kudos.

 

The UV rendition of the I. pseudacorus sometimes more clearly show a bi-colour pattern (yellow and blue). I assume one needs a lens going a bit deep into UV, such as the UV-Nikkor, to make this rendition strongly manifested.
